Siheyuan: Married a female spy at the beginning of 1944

He Daqing's troops fought at a high intensity for six consecutive months.

Most of them already feel tired.

Although there are instructors doing continuous psychological work, these people still need proper rest.

There was no other choice but He Daqing to give the troops a half-month holiday to let them rest.

"Commander, the situation of the Japanese is getting worse and worse. I think we should take Shanxi as well."

The Japanese troops are now mainly concentrated in Northeast China, Shanxi, Hunan, Hubei, Shanghai and other places.

According to history, the Soviet Union would send troops to Northeast China in August.

By then, most of the Japanese troops in Northeast China had been pulled to Siberia to grow potatoes.

As for Hunan, Hubei and other places, they have always been under the jurisdiction of the National Government. If He Daqing clears out the Japanese troops there now.

We will soon face pressure from the government.

As for Shanghai, even if we take that place now, it won’t do anything.

Therefore, He Daqing felt that he must kill the Japanese in Shanxi before they surrender.

Otherwise, after the Japanese surrender, there will be no chance to kill them again.

Commander Qin is now more than just the commander of the military sub-district.

Because he has such a capable subordinate like He Daqing.

He has been assigned a separate Hebei Military Region.

Mainly responsible for Peking and Hebei.

At the same time, it also assisted the Eighth Route Army in Henan and Shandong to wipe out the Japanese army.

Commander Qin now has a large military district with 5 regular troops and 10 militiamen.

Moreover, these 50,000 regular troops were equipped with almost all the equipment of the Japanese invaders.

The 10 militiamen are almost at the same level of equipment as the Japanese guard and the Imperial Army.

With Commander Qin's current team, even without He Daqing's assistance.

It is also not inferior to the Japanese.

Even with equal numbers and equal logistics, they could easily defeat the Japanese.

"Shanxi? Shanxi is not that easy to attack. Shanxi has always been easy to defend but difficult to attack. It was not easy for the Japanese to attack Shanxi before.

It is not easy for us to beat Shanxi now either.”

Commander Qin actually wanted to go south and take over Jiangsu, especially the northern part of Jiangsu.

There are not many Japanese defenders in the northern Jiangsu area, and there are also a large number of our military bases in this area.

As long as we drive the Japanese away, we can immediately establish governments at all levels.

Provide various supplies to the Eighth Route Army.

"Commander, we don't have much time left. Germany surrendered in May. The European battlefield has been over for two months.

Now the US military has also reached Ryukyu. I think they will soon attack the Japanese mainland.

If we don’t continue to fight the Japanese at this time, once they surrender, these people can return to Japan.”

He Daqing's goal was to kill all the Japanese devils who came to China.

However, his ability was limited. After almost a year, he only killed less than 10 Japanese devils.

Although three provinces were recovered, it was when the main force of the Japanese was entangled with the United States.

Since the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese have been drawing soldiers from the mainland.

These soldiers were sent to various small islands in Southeast Asia, or to Myanmar, the Philippines and other places.

This also led to a sharp decline in the Japanese's dominance on the mainland.

If the Japanese were at their most powerful, He Daqing would not have been able to eliminate them in such a short time.

In addition to the shortage of troops, another important reason was that the Japanese supplies were becoming increasingly scarce.

Since June 44, the U.S. military has been launching continuous air strikes against the Japanese.

A large number of industrial cities were bombed.

Nearly 800 million Japanese soldiers fled from the cities to the countryside.

By July 45, the factory's attendance rate was less than 7%.

Industrial production capacity is less than 30% of what it was before the bombing.

For the Japanese, the US military is the key to their survival.

So all their energy was focused on dealing with the US military, and they no longer cared about He Daqing.

This also resulted in the Japanese army's supplies being basically cut off at this time.

The Japanese troops hid in the city and had no way to rob the countryside, so they couldn't even get enough food.

Some Japanese soldiers have even started selling guns and bullets.

Some Japanese soldiers began to work for the landlords in exchange for food.

Commander Qin’s opinion is different from He Daqing’s.

He Daqing wanted to kill all the Japanese devils.

Commander Qin wanted to win the war.

If you want to win the war, you can't just consider personal feelings.

Although most Chinese people wanted to kill all the Japanese, once there were no prisoners, their desperate resistance would slow down the progress of the war.

Properly placing the prisoners will allow us to capture strongholds and cities more quickly.

At this time, both the Eighth Route Army and the National Government had actually been in contact with the Japanese army.

However, most Japanese troops only contacted the National Government and ignored the Eighth Route Army.

After all, at this time, the national government holds the national interest.

The Eighth Route Army, which understood the war situation, did not want to continue the war at this time.

Both the National Government and the Eighth Route Army had already seen that the Japanese were getting more and more doomed.

At this time, it is not cost-effective to continue fighting the Japanese.

The Japanese were like a bleeding wild boar. No one cared about them and they would die in a short while.

At this time, anyone who provokes him might be half killed by his dying counterattack.

"Comrade He Daqing, there is something wrong with your thinking. You have been in the team for such a long time, why do you still want to kill the Japanese?

I heard from your subordinates that you have to personally participate in every battle and go to the front line.

Do you know your responsibilities? You are now the division commander, division commander? If you die on the front line, who will command your troops? "

Commander Qin has a love-hate relationship with He Daqing.

What I love is that He Daqing is really good at fighting.

As long as it is a team led by He Daqing, the combat effectiveness will soar directly.

There was no sign of how artistic He Daqing's command was, nor did he say anything to boost morale.

But when fighting, they are as fierce as if they were on drugs.

But at the same time, He Daqing also had many problems.

Especially the murderous intention is too strong.

In other troops, the rate of captured Japanese soldiers was around 70%.

Only He Daqing's troops captured less than 30% of the Japanese soldiers, and sometimes, even less than 10%.

Commander Qin is very clear about the tricks involved.

He also didn't know why He Daqing hated the Japanese so much. As far as he knew, He Daqing's relatives were not killed by the Japanese.

"Commander, I know all this. I will pay attention next time. Commander, discuss it with the Military Commission. Let's attack Shanxi."

"Why fight? We have been ordered to persuade the Japanese in Beijing, Zhengzhou and Tianjin to surrender as soon as possible. If they don't surrender, we will attack regardless of the consequences and make sure to take down these cities."

When He Daqing heard this order, his face looked a little ugly.

He Daqing doesn't care about the gains and losses of a city or a place at all.

He just wanted to destroy the Japanese's effective forces.

It would not be cost-effective for him to fight to the death against these big cities, and the casualties of the troops would increase significantly in the process.
