Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

As the independent column took control of this place, a county-level democratic government was formed in Woye to manage the people's livelihood and economy in the territory.Some villages and towns around the county seat also gradually became lively.

Many nomadic nomadic tribes in the surrounding area have gradually become accustomed to buying goods here from the initial vigilance to the current acceptance.Except for some prohibited items, these nomadic herdsmen can buy necessities for life from here.

Similar to the salt and tea that nomads need most, as long as they can bring their livestock here for sale, they can also buy tea and salt from here.Even some inland commodities can be purchased by herdsmen.

Of course, nomads who have been to Woye know that after entering Woye, they must abide by the policies promulgated by the Woye democratic government.If they dare to act mischievously in Woye, the Eighth Route Army stationed here will not let them go easily.

If they do business honestly, these nomads can get the protection of the Eighth Route Army here.After a period of contact, many small tribes who are used to moving to nomads finally chose to settle in Woye.

In order to control these wild nomads, He Zhengdao also warned the local democratic government officials to implement a carrot and stick policy for these people, and let them know what it means to be kind and powerful.

And the people in this area know that every winter is the most difficult time for them.But before the heavy snow fell this year, the Woye Democratic Government posted a notice to let some small tribes move to the Woye settlement for the winter.

In these established settlements, herdsmen can get better arrangements.At least they don't have to worry too much. When they are in the wild in winter, they suddenly encounter horse bandits who come out to rob houses and a completely uncontrollable snowstorm. dudu1

As long as they move to a residential area, the livestock they herd will have special livestock sheds.And they only need to pay a certain fee from the government to rent these well-built livestock sheds and houses.

In many cases, they don't even use the night whistle.Outside these temporary settlements, patrol troops from the Eighth Route Army often stand guard on their behalf.It can be said that they can survive the winter safely as long as they move here.

Such a good deed is undoubtedly a good deed that is difficult to refuse for many small nomadic groups with a small number of people.With the relocation of these small ethnic groups, the population in Woye seems to have increased a lot.

But if there are careful people to observe, they will rest assured that the population around Woye is mostly concentrated around Woye City.On the contrary, some places in Woye that used to be suitable for grazing are very quiet, and there is no human habitation at all.

Such a cold season, unless there is something big.Otherwise, even nomads who have lived in this environment for many years will not go out easily.They all know how dangerous it is to go out in this kind of weather.

However, under such a harsh environment, the surrounding area of ​​Woye also seemed not to be peaceful.Compared with the common people and herdsmen, who mostly hid in warm tents and houses, the fertile field garrison and guerrillas were busier than usual.

According to the experience of previous years, when the heavy snow falls every year, the horse bandits who usually come and go will become more ferocious than before.Everyone knows that when the mountains are covered by heavy snow, horse bandits also need to rob supplies for the winter.

Many times, some villages or small nomadic tribes living in the wild are the targets of these horse bandits.If in the past these horse bandits only robbed money and food, then in winter they changed to killing villages.

Thanks to previous examples, the relocation decision made by the Woye democratic government this year is still recognized by many people and nomadic tribes.Therefore, when heavy snow began to block roads, these insecure people all migrated.

Compared with some villages where ordinary people live, most of them are village-level militias and guerrillas.Those nomadic tribes who migrated have a certain ability to defend themselves.But moving into temporary settlements, they also need to submit to the management of the Eighth Route Army.

Using the livestock they usually graze, they can purchase winter supplies from the government that they could not buy with money in the past.Only a certain amount of livestock needs to be kept for breeding, and the rest can be sold to the local government.

Usually in residential areas, they only need to do a good job of vigilance around the residential areas.As for the farther areas, the cavalry patrols of the Eighth Route Army are naturally in charge.There were alarms, and someone gave them advance warning. dudu2

Although these temporary settlements are not very prosperous and stable, walls have been built in each settlement.When there is any danger, the troops on patrol outside can also be stationed in temporary settlements for defensive operations.

As long as you persist for a while, the nearby Eighth Route Army garrison will come to help as quickly as possible.In this way, the nomads who live in these settlements can also avoid being slaughtered by horse bandits.

When the people in Woye stayed at home, looking forward to the early passing of winter.Among the several mountains on the border of Woye, groups of cavalry troops of the Eighth Route Army appeared.And these troops stationed in the valley, many times they stationed at night.

When the next day dawned, most of the traces left by the night march were covered by the night's wind and snow.Therefore, except for some patrolling security forces who found that there were many more of their own people in the territory, the horse bandits far outside Woye didn't know it.

In a valley leading to Ningxia, He Zhengdao, who had traveled a long distance, also appeared in this valley under the leadership of the Saber Special Forces.Not long after, they were discovered by the cavalry division guards guarding the valley.

Fortunately, these security forces all knew that this group of people might not be simple.Because before this group of people showed up, their division commanders and political commissars had already waited for a long time in front of the valley post.

When He Zhengdao and his party unbuttoned their white cloaks and got off their horses, looking at the political commissar of the division commander who was saluting to He Zhengdao, a veteran of the Second Cavalry Division immediately said in surprise: "Oh my God! It's the commander! At this time, the commander actually came to our division! "

For the officers and soldiers of these cavalry divisions, some of them had also seen He Zhengdao on the Suiyuan battlefield.In the previous battle in Shanxi, the officers and soldiers of their Second Cavalry Division also envied that the First Cavalry Division could fight with the troops.

Batu, the commander of the Second Cavalry Division who saluted He Zhengdao, is also the only Mongolian cavalry commander in the Eighth Route Army.For Batu, he can also be regarded as a model of He Zhengdao's eclectic selection of talents.

Facing the officers and soldiers of the second division who had already recognized him with excited faces, He Zhengdao also smiled and said: "Comrades, you have worked hard!"

'Serve the people! '

Some excited cavalry shouted this reflexively.For such performance, He Zhengdao also smiled very satisfied.For many veterans of the independent column, He Zhengdao was very polite and respectful to the grassroots soldiers. dudu3

On the contrary, the division commander, Batu, said very seriously: "Stand on guard, and when Captain Li of the Fertile Field Garrison will come, remember to bring him to the command post when he arrives. You must carry out any news about the commander. Good secrecy and discipline, understand?"

'Yes, sir! '

Many veterans who knew He Zhengdao's habits were more or less aware of He Zhengdao's sudden appearance at the temporary headquarters of their division headquarters. Presumably there must be some unknown reason.But if you think about it, there must be something big going on.

Otherwise, their Second Cavalry Division would not have quietly entered this valley in the name of training.And in this valley, it takes nearly a week to stay here.

Looking at these officers and soldiers of the Second Cavalry Division who are in good spirits, He Zhengdao also smiled and said: "Liping, Batu, such cold weather made you pull the troops here. How is the mood and combat effectiveness of the troops?"

Listening to He Zhengdao's question, political commissar Zhou Liping said with a smile: "Commander, it is the bounden duty of soldiers to obey orders. Besides, winter training has always been our traditional training subject, and veterans know it.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the troops have nothing to do except that they feel a little confused about why they have to rest on the spot after the training.Now that the commander is here, I think they should be even happier! "

'What are you happy about? '

The political commissar did not speak to such an inquiry. Instead, the cavalry division commander Batu smiled and said, "Commander, you brought our division here because you have a combat mission, right? Are you going to deal with the reactionaries over there?"

Facing Batu, who was eager to try, He Zhengdao laughed and scolded: "Batu, it seems that making you a teacher has not been able to wear down your combative character! What's the matter, are you looking forward to fighting like this?"

In response to He Zhengdao's scolding, Batu continued to smile and said, "Commander, hasn't it been a long time since I fought? Last time I originally wanted to invite Zhan to fight in Shanxi, but you finally chose the First Cavalry Division. The officers and soldiers below felt that My teacher is incompetent!"

'okay!What kind of virtue do you have, don't I know?Don't worry, I am here this time, not simply to inspect the troops.But whether there is a battle or not depends on whether our opponents give us a chance.Let's talk at the headquarters! '

It is clear that Batu, the cavalry commander, is indeed a militant.But He Zhengdao also knew that it was this kind of character that could bring out the main cavalry division in front of him who was also screaming in battle.

After all, cavalry battles often require blood and courage. Without these two things, how can cavalry become elite? (To be continued.)

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

♂,

When He Zhengdao secretly arrived in the territory of Woye, the territory of Pingluo adjacent to Woye also appeared to be? 33?? Unsettled.The Ningxia Majia Army Cavalry Division stationed here is also preparing for winter looting.

Although the officers and soldiers of the cavalry division knew that the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side was not easy to provoke.But they also know that as long as they are careful and don't let the other party catch the handle, there is no problem for them to make some small moves.

Most importantly, they all felt that the people in Woye City were richer than those in Pingluo.This also means that as long as they operate properly, cavalry units that go out to conduct camouflage operations can gain a lot.

Staying in a place like Ningxia, they are naturally familiar with the nomads in the early years, every winter, they would cross the border to carry out the so-called "grass hunting" operation.And this time, they also picked up this tradition hoping to seek personal gain.

It's just that if you want to enter the territory of Woye to carry out robbery, you will naturally have to go through some secret preparations and reconnaissance.They all knew that the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army garrison guarding Woye should not be underestimated.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, snow in winter is not suitable for cavalry troops to fight.But in the eyes of the commanders of the cavalry division, it was inconvenient for them to enter the fertile field, and it would also be inconvenient for the Eighth Route Army troops guarding the fertile field to mobilize heavy troops.

After all, even the garrison regiment guarding Woye is mostly cavalry.But in snowy weather, it is still difficult for the cavalry to quickly reinforce a place.This means that they have plenty of transfer time.

As long as the location of the robbery is planned in advance and the corresponding retreat route is prepared, they all feel that this kind of operation of grass valley in winter will become very safe.Most importantly, the Eighth Route Army has nothing to do about it.

With the end of the reconnaissance before the operation, the cavalry division stationed in Pingluo also sent a telegram to Ma Hongkui asking for instructions.Although this kind of thing is not allowed too many people know.However, when the cavalry division goes out to operate, it still needs to ask for instructions.

Even the commander of the cavalry division knew that this kind of action was allowed by their commander in chief.But before dispatching troops, they naturally had to inform and ask for instructions.In this way, even if something happens, Ma Hongkui will not just sit idly by.

After receiving the telegram from the Pingluo Cavalry Division, Ma Hongkui, the actual ruler of Ningxia, said somewhat hesitantly, "Isn't it appropriate for us to continue our winter operations at this time? I heard that the man surnamed He has returned to Yulin." ?”

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree! dudu1
