Rise From Eight Hundred

In the next seven days, Tang Dao was extremely busy.

First, he led the four-line regiment to the "Dakouzi" cave station that he had exchanged from the 921 Division at a great cost. The place was exactly as he imagined. At a glance, the most numerous things were stones.

The rugged mountain road area is so narrow that even a cart with a width of less than 1.6 meters is difficult to pass in many places, so that the officers and soldiers had to unload the materials from the cart and carry them through the dangerous mountain road by pure manpower, and then use the cart to transportation.

Undoubtedly, this greatly delayed the difficulty of marching!

This also indirectly explains the basic reason why in time and space, the Japanese army dispatched 5,000 troops in a nearly sneak attack. Before the main force of the 921st Division returned, they were still beaten into disgrace by the defense group with only one-half of its own strength.

The terrain here is really easy to defend but difficult to attack! Even if the Japanese army had planes to assist, Tang Dao judged from standing on the top of the stone peak and looking into the distance that heavy aerial bombs would not be able to do much against this stone mountain with crisscrossed ravines.

What's more, from the perspective of Tang Dao, a future little butterfly, this land is not just the miraculous workmanship of nature that has given it natural defense. With Brigadier Cheng's precedent of tunnel fighting in the Icefield War, Tang Dao has already done so. According to the plan, Bai Sheng's engineer company will expand into the largest company-level force in the entire Si Xing Regiment within the next year.

Of course, except for the formal establishment of more than 200 people, the others are all reserve forces. They are selected from the local mountain people. They do not have to go to the front line to carry guns. They only have to work hard and receive corresponding rewards. It should not be difficult for such a young and strong man to do so. trick.

In addition, during the two days when the Sixings Regiment was waiting for contact between Tang Dao and the 683 Brigade, the families of the 500 recruits recruited from Xuzhou also rushed outside the mountain. Except for a few stragglers, more than 90% arrived before In the predetermined area, Zhuang Shisan specially sent a guard company and some recruits to take them into Taihang Mountain.

Even though most of these family members are old people, children and women, who are said by many to be a burden, only Tang Dao knows that there will be at least five factories around Dakouzi Cave. In addition to a small number of skilled workers, there is a shortage of It's the general workers.

Women will become the most important part of these general workers, and the elderly can take good care of their children at home and do housework within their ability. The children will eventually grow up safely.

This war will last much longer than the most optimistic soldiers expected!

They can not only exchange their labor for wages and survive in this troubled world, but also use their own hands to make bullets that can be fired at the Japanese invaders, and they can also raise China's future. This is three birds with one stone.

Not to mention the two thousand old, weak, women and children, Tang Dao even thought about sending expatriates out to absorb the displaced refugees when the station gradually stabilized, thereby increasing the population around the station.

These refugees do not compete with local mountain people for land and food. They rely on work to support themselves and their entire families.

Of course, in this case, more factories will need to be located in the area, and their profits will also need to be guaranteed. This will form a virtuous cycle.

Tang Dao can't control what happens in other places, but in this barren mountain, an industrial zone can initially be formed that relies on light industry and machinery industry to support everyone.

This industrial zone can not only continuously export clothing, arms and other products to the Chinese military and civilians throughout the north, but also support a group of workers who rely on labor to support themselves, without being so thirsty for land and gradually abandoning purely agricultural life needs.

Tang Dao's idea is beautiful, but it is not so easy to implement. First of all, the geographical environment here is really bad. It is difficult to transport materials in, and it is equally difficult to transport them out. With this terrain, in a peaceful era, the cliff This is an area that capital doesn’t take a serious look at.

But everything has two sides. In peacetime, this is a place where nothing happens, but in wartime, the blood-sucking insect of capital considers how to survive. The place where the fire of war cannot burn is paradise.

What? Is the mountain high and the road difficult to walk? That's nothing, it's just paying people to hire donkeys to carry the bags on their shoulders!

As long as the Japanese cannot come in, the capitalists can tell you for ten thousand reasons that this place is much better than Jiangnan.

Second, of course, is profit! No capitalist will do business at a loss, otherwise he would rather die. No matter how patriotic we are, the nature of capitalists pursuing profit will not change.

Tang Dao can sustain it for a while just by drawing big cakes, but it will never last long. If he wants to form a virtuous circle, he can only help them find the market. Then there need to be successful examples. Fortunately, those who were fooled by Tang Dao were confused. Lao Jia and others are already taking action. A large number of machinery and equipment have already begun to be transferred to the Western Province before the departure of the Four Troops. As soon as the situation in Tangdao stabilizes, at least two factories will be transferred from the Western Province. Enter Jindong.

The other most important point is how Tang Dao can ensure the safety of the Four Elements Regiment.

This is actually the simplest and easiest thing to do for Tang Dao.

Fist is the best proof!

Of course, that was a fist thrown at the Japanese invaders!

This is the first battle in Jindong. Tang Dao tells the capitalists who are still watching that he is not only in Jindong, but also the brave and capable 921 Division, the Japanese invaders with aircraft and heavy artillery, and perhaps I will also fight on the plains. Not sure about them, but in this big mountain, it is the Chinese who have the final say.

Letting you occupy the county seat and letting you hoard supplies is just to lend you a place. After a while, I will ask you to collect rent. The rent is the lives and supplies of the Japanese.

In fact, for quite a long time before the old devil Gangcun became the commander of the Japanese North China Front Army, the three infantry divisions of the 80th Army active in the mountainous area did just that.

It's just not as domineering as Tang Dao said. They treated the county town as a rented warehouse. After all, they lacked artillery, and it was difficult to consider the tactic of attacking for the time being. They mainly focused on attacking and destroying traffic lines.

As long as it is supplies, it must be transported. To transport, there must be roads. It's very simple logic!

The Japanese army, which is afraid of being attacked, often escorts with heavy troops, but there is only a thousand days of thieves, so how can you guard against thieves for a thousand days? Transport ten times, or even twenty times, and I only attack once, which is also like a hard kick on the Japanese army, isn't it?

As for the Japanese transportation plan and route, why most of them are known by their opponents, this is probably a stubborn problem that even the Japanese themselves can't solve.

In fact, there are too many traitors!

Yes, in order to survive, there are too many traitors who bend down and offer their knees, lick the pen face and call Taijun.

After the war, records showed that during the entire Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese Anti-Japanese Army wiped out nearly 1.28 million puppet troops. When Japan surrendered, there were about 1.46 million puppet troops and more than 400,000 puppet police. Together with the national army and police of the puppet Manchukuo, the total number of traitors who served Japan during the Anti-Japanese War can be said to be more than 3 million, which is more than the total number of Japanese troops invading China.

These traitors who forgot their ancestors brought shame to the Chinese people and became the shame of China! They also added huge obstacles to China's Patriotic War. No matter how weak their combat effectiveness is, they are not a group of pigs. Even if they are pigs, they will kick and bite when they are killed, right?

But as the old saying goes, everything has two sides. While the Japanese army used a large number of traitors to maintain their rule over the occupied areas, they had to accept the fact that this group of traitors who were completely unwilling to be a traitor might flatter them during the day and call them "Taijun". At night, they might talk about the little devils and sell the devils and Taijun with a roll of money.

The proportion does not need to be too large, as long as there is one percent, the Japanese have already sold out all the traitors, that is, the status of most traitors will not be very high, otherwise the commander of the Japanese North China Front Army just changed his crotch pants in the morning, and the other side will know whether there is a hole in the crotch pants at noon.

What's more, facing such a large number of traitors who surrendered to them, how can the Japanese distinguish which ones are real and which ones are fake?

This also led to the fact that during the entire Patriotic War, the Japanese had to fight the Chinese army on the front while spending a lot of energy in the occupied areas to compete with almost all Chinese people, and open and covert wars were everywhere.

However, it doesn't matter. Not to mention that there are hundreds of millions of Chinese and lapdogs in the occupied areas, and it would be difficult to identify them. Is it really that trustworthy for the Japanese themselves?

The Japanese have never been a monolithic group. It is true that most of them support the war, but there are also those who do not support the war and believe that launching this war will drag the island nation into the abyss.

So, you know, this is a completely impossible task.

Although, in this invisible war, countless Chinese paid their lives, but every message they sent out would also cost the Japanese blood!

This is the Patriotic War, every minute and every second, lives are lost, whether Chinese or Japanese, they are all hurt!

But, the war has begun, unless one side falls, otherwise, it will not end!

As Tang Dao, standing on the top of the peak and looking into the distance, said: Jindong, we are here! 108th Division, die!

The road to the garrison is difficult, but it is gratifying that before entering the garrison, the 47th Army, which had been in contact with the Four-Line Regiment by telegram, sent their baggage regiment.

Yes, when it was known that the Four-Line Regiment had brought an infantry regiment's equipment to them from afar and had been sent to Jindong, the 47th Army's Li, who would later engrave his name in the list of 100 famous anti-Japanese generals, lost control of his emotions and burst into tears.

It was not because of the excitement of an infantry regiment's equipment, but because he was extremely sad.

The battle of Dongyang Pass broke out a week ago. His infantry division faced most of the Japanese infantry brigade. With the advantage of manpower, he only had a few mortars against dozens of Japanese artillery. More than 2,000 Sichuan soldiers shed blood on the battlefield of Dongyang Pass.

It doesn't need to be more. If there are ten or even six more mortars, the number of casualties will be reduced by half. The Four-line Regiment came a little late.

But what can he blame the Four-line Regiment for? The 43rd Army sent a battle report. The Four-line Regiment set out from northern Jiangsu and fought two battles with the Japanese in Henan Province. In one and a half months, it carried dozens of tons of supplies. There were no cars. It relied purely on manpower and pack horses to cross 2,000 miles to Shanxi Province.

This is a military order, but also a favor!

Although Tang Dao was just a small colonel, the 47th Army still made an exception and sent a division-level officer to lead the baggage regiment. After communicating with the 683rd Brigade, they joined the Four-line Regiment in their defense area and received this batch of equipment.

Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang, who came to greet them on behalf of the 863rd Brigade, was so envious that his saliva almost wet the chest of his uniform.

Since Commander Guo had already communicated with the 47th Army, the two sides had reached a tacit understanding that the 4th Regiment would not return to the army for the time being and would remain in eastern Shanxi to fight. In name, it was under the jurisdiction of the 47th Army. The "Transportation Regiment" and the baggage regiment that came to receive them were considered to be in the same army. In addition, there were already many Sichuan troops in the 4th Regiment. Even though the accents of eastern and northern Sichuan were slightly different, the familiar accent made them more friendly.

The division-level officer of the 47th Army did not put on airs in front of Tang Dao, a 'subordinate' who was two levels lower. Instead, he enthusiastically invited Tang Dao and the Sixings Group to the defense area where the 47th Army was located, and specially selected a few places. Good location.

And through the statement of this division-level officer, although he did not draw a direct conclusion, it generally means that as long as Tang Dao is willing to go, regardless of whether the superiors agree or not, the position of a brigade-level unit commander has been reserved for him. In order to give Shangfeng some face, the military rank can be temporarily unchanged, but the change from three stars to one star will never take more than two years.

Tang Dao naturally knew that this must be the decision of the commander surnamed Li. No one could refuse a warrior like Tang Dao and an elite like the Four Elements Group.

From a school officer to a general officer, there is only one step away, but for 95% of the school officers, this step is a natural chasm that will be difficult to overcome in their lifetime.

Even people like Commander Guo didn't dare to tell Tang Dao a clear time like this one. You can imagine the difficulty.

But this man dares to say that he naturally has his confidence. After the main force of the 22nd Army rushed to Xuzhou, the 47th Army that stayed in eastern Shanxi was actually the main force of the Sichuan Army in the northern battlefield. Since the death of the King of Sichuan Province surnamed Liu years ago, the 47th Army was behind The elder immediately became a prominent figure in Sichuan Province.

In fact, this person’s confidence is not without reason. In the past time and space, the commander of the 22nd Army will return to Sichuan Province soon and ascend to the throne of Chairman of Sichuan Province, and this person will also be promoted to the Army Group in a year’s time Commander, with such a background, ensuring that Tang Dao is promoted is definitely not an empty promise!

It is impossible to say that Tang Dao was not tempted at that moment.

It's not because his military rank will be qualitatively improved and he will become a general who can return home in glory, but because he can lead more troops to fight the Japanese invaders in an honest and fair manner.

Can the number of Japanese troops killed by commanding 2,000 men be the same as commanding 6,000 men?

But Tang Dao finally resisted the sudden temptation!

The 47th Army and their commanders indeed proved their determination to resist Japan in the future, which was another glory for the Sichuan Army.

However, they are still someone's pawns after all, and it won't be long before they go to the battlefield in the Central Plains.

The reason why Tang Dao came to the northern battlefield was that he no longer wanted to be someone's chess piece that could be matched casually. He wanted to lead his army and fight with the 921st Division to create his own piece of the sky in this mountain.

With the strength of a mere regiment, he cannot save more people, but if he can work together with that army, he can protect this mountain that stretches more than 400 kilometers across the motherland and divides the east and west.

Even, in the future, their tentacles may extend further north.

The superior terrain here allows us to retreat, defend, and attack. It is like putting a knife in front of the Japanese North China Front, ready to kill them at any time.

I want to play? Come on! Come here and hit me! When he thought of this, it was hard not to see Mou Teng's mean expression in front of Tang Dao's eyes!

Staying in Taihang, blatantly showing off, ‘I want to kill me, but I can’t! ’ A four-element group like this will definitely make the Japanese heartbroken to death.

Of course, the most important reason for this, the division-level officer who was extremely disappointed because of Tang Dao's rejection three seconds later, never imagined that it was not that the thighs of his 47th Army were not thick enough, but that the thighs of the 80th Army were thicker.

Perhaps even the Eightyth Army himself did not realize it at this moment. In a few years, let alone one group army, I am afraid that ten group armies will not be able to accommodate it!

But no one dares to blame Tang Dao, because Tang Dao also has enough confidence. The equipment of the infantry regiment sent across thousands of miles is not so much a supplement as a gift from the 43rd Army. If not replaced with anything else, it will be replaced by four The independence of the group.

The two elders have already agreed that the leadership is only nominal. All military operations of the Fourth Army Group only need to be reported to the military headquarters. The autonomy lies with them, and the required military pay is raised by themselves, without the 47th Army having to worry about it.

To put it bluntly, the so-called subordinate relationship is just for the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs to see.

In the view of the military commander surnamed Li, this is normal. Eastern Sichuan and Northern Sichuan have always been at odds with each other. Since they want to get a share of the northern battlefield, they secretly resort to this trick, and they will easily defeat a step-by-step approach. Giving the Corps to yourself and recruiting it are just efforts, and it is normal not to get it.

Since it couldn't really become a system, the division-level officer didn't bother much. He received the equipment and left. He made no other contribution, but it reduced a lot of the burden on the Four Lines Regiment.

Of course, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang's saliva was not in vain. The equipment promised to the 683 Brigade was delivered the next day. It was signed by Director Wang of the 683 Brigade and the 772nd Regiment was responsible for receiving it.

Good guy, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang wiped his saliva with his backhand and waved at the director of the political office of his regiment. Within an hour, more than a thousand people from two infantry battalions arrived running.

He was obviously well prepared. If Tang Dao dared to break his promise, these more than a thousand people...

He had to come to the Four Elements Group for dinner. Judging from their appetite, just eating plain rice would probably give Chief of Staff Zhuang Da a headache for several days.

But just like this, people come all the way to carry supplies, why can't the Four Lines Group solve the problem of food and clothing for them?

Without further ado, please ask for two pancakes per person!

Anyway, with the face of Comrade "Wang Xiaoqiang", even a single meal would be small. If the reception is slower, the two infantry battalions of the 772nd Regiment can feed each other for a day. Tang Dao Jubi believes it.

In just two days, the Four-Line Regiment, a ‘heavy transport regiment’, was completely transformed into a light-equipped regiment. Otherwise, how could it be so ‘easy’ to go to the new station?

However! Comrade ‘Wang Xiaoqiang’ was thick-skinned, but he kept his promise. On the second day after the Four-Line Regiment arrived at ‘Dakouzi Cave’, in addition to leaving the necessary defensive forces, he brought two infantry battalions of the 772nd Regiment and 2,000 militiamen organized and called for, carrying thick trees and rushed over.

In other words, they provided meals, and no one asked for any compensation. Together with the 3,000 people of the Four-Line Regiment and nearly 2,000 family members, a total of 7,000 to 8,000 people were temporarily building the Four-Line Regiment’s station.

Sleeping in the mountains is a daily routine for soldiers, but it cannot last forever. Not to mention that the human body is not steel, even steel can be rusted if it is not properly maintained.

If you want to maintain combat effectiveness, logistics work must be done well!

In five days, a large number of wooden and stone houses, including the dangerous checkpoints around the station, were all built!

Tang Dao, after bidding farewell to the officers and soldiers of the 772nd Regiment and the militia who came to help, convened a military meeting of the officers above the company level of the Four-Line Regiment.

Meeting topic: Send troops to Licheng!
