Chapter 653 Friendship
From the vast plain west of Meixian to the foot of the mountain, since the cavalry and encirclement and suppression troops were attacked by the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese recruited civilians to build many new strongholds: artillery towers and bunkers. Even in the middle of winter, they did not stop digging blockade trenches, trying to gradually form a network blockade system to form a network blockade system.
The blockade focused on the two locations: Lushuipu and Luoye Village. After the artillery building stronghold was pulled out, the security forces stationed in addition to Li Youde's troops, the Japanese also transferred a small team to rotate the artillery building in order to rotate.
The security forces in the county town were directly pulled out and stationed at the newly built artillery tower near the county town.
The land that was originally a quasi-security area in the eyes of the Japanese has now become a public security area called by the enemy.
In the eyes of the Japanese, if the two roads to the independent regiment are blocked from the mountain, the independent regiment will be trapped in the mountains!
This is used to isolate the influence of the Eighth Route Army on the vast number of ordinary people on the plains.
After the Chinese New Year, the cold winter still rained. As natural disasters intensified, human-caused disasters continued to aggravate.
For the Eighth Route Army in Shanli, the difficulties faced are absolutely unprecedented.
In the enemy-occupied areas, people are starved to death every day.
Until now, Chongqing still ignores the situation in the disaster area. Perhaps in their eyes, since they have become the Japanese, you should go find the Japanese to eat!
Even forgot that the people in the enemy-occupied areas are still their own compatriots.
The Eighth Route Army watched the people struggle on the brink of death, doing their best, and there was almost no way to solve the unprecedented famine.
The grain transport team raised by the superiors finally arrived at Sanjiaji, but anyone knows that the 30,000 kilograms of grain assigned to the independent group are completely a drop in the bucket! Not to mention, the independent group received more than 5,000 disaster victims, and each person had six kilograms. It would be great to last for ten days and half a month. Moreover, according to the superiors' arrangement, most of this batch of grain would have to be transported out of the mountain and delivered to the victims.
The independent gang's food was changed to two meals, and the soldiers' training was reduced accordingly. If you have nothing to do, you will study or... sleep.
In the troops in Sanjiaji, except for a very small number of people who knew that the division arranged for people to restart the enemy's special investigation, the station was no different from usual.
Captain Lu was in a very depressed mood, and his bad mood was directly on his face.
After watching the sand table with his legs crossed his legs for a long time, he was already depressed enough. He turned to look at the political commissar who had just returned and held the teapot: "Lao Ding, Minister Zhang of the Political Department has brought people to Dabeizhuang."
"What?"
"Investigate the incident where we were poisoned."
"What does this mean at this critical moment?"
"The girl went to the division to participate in the operation. I will tell you in detail later... She met the head of the headquarters' intelligence department and I don't know how to talk about poisoning. After analysis, this matter attracted the attention of the superiors. If nothing unexpected happens, I guess there will be a result this afternoon."
"It's great to be able to find the spy. Isn't this a good thing... Why are you doing with a bitter face?"
"I think so too, but I feel uneasy!" Captain Lu stared at his blood-red eyes: "By the way, how is the situation in the Ninth Company when you come out of the mountain this time?"
The political commissar suppressed his inner joy: "Not really!"
"When did you learn to ambush? You see the flesh on your face is moving. If you want to laugh, you will laugh."
The political commissar smiled slightly: "The Ninth Company has brought up a team of more than a thousand people. If militias are added, I think it may be possible to break through two thousand soon!"
"What?" Commander Lu stood up and pressed the political commissar on the stool next to the sand table: "Tell me carefully, what's going on?"
The political commissar took away the commander Lu: "The number of people in the Ninth Company itself has not changed much. The Water Conservancy Self-Defense Corps...uh... Even the security team personnel have not changed much, but they are all learning wine stations... Even Lao Meng has set up a militia team. The Jiujiu, who originally opened a gambling hall at the foot of the mountain, even drove the gambling hall into the provincial capital."
Captain Lu frowned: "Opening a gambling hall? This is a violation of discipline."
"Don't worry, they are not from our Eighth Route Army now. By the way, where is Hu Yi? Aren't they back?"
"Don't worry, let's tell you something. Let's arrange someone to go to the friendly army for communication. I plan to arrange for Hu Yi to lead the team. What do you think?"
The political commissar was stunned for a moment: "Not very good."
"Why?"
"He is only a company commander. What is the level of his friendly army? Don't say you don't know?"
"Isn't it the 24th Army?"
"Just? I also know that they are the group army. Do you send a company commander to communicate with them?
They are at the same level as our Eighth Route Army's 18th Group Army. Haodai also fought hard battles with the Japanese on the front battlefield. Although he sent people to our independent regiment to communicate, it was a slap in the face, so we were not as skilled as others, but we couldn't blame others.
You arranged for Hu Yi to go, and then shouted to others: Ah... Commander Lu of my Independent Regiment sent a company commander to communicate with you. Don't you think our Eighth Route Army is interested in slaughtering people?"
Commander Lu listened to the political commissar's long speech: "Hehe, I temporarily promoted Hu Yi to staff officer, do you have no objection?"
The political commissar said with a black line: "Then you get rid of this staff officer again after finishing your business? What would Hu Yi think? I think you have to throw your face directly into the war zone this time, and you are famous throughout the army!"
Commander Lu shook his head: "I heard that his direct troops were defeated by various opponents ten times!"
"But they have the ability to quickly gather the defeated troops after being defeated. Not only does it not suffer much loss, but the team will grow stronger and stronger. This is also a skill."
Commander Lu curled his lips: "Their commander is a well-known veteran. He dares not offend his boss and has a good skill to preserve his strength. Every time the battle sounds, he orders the troops to scatter their feet and run away. In terms of escaping, he has won himself the reputation of "tumbler".
"The superiors asked us to unite. Although our neighbor was defeated repeatedly, at the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he once encountered the 10th Japanese Division, which broke through the 29th Route Army's defense line. They showed the prestige of our soldiers in Cang County. The unit changed its cowardly appearance and set off its stance to fight with the Japanese, and blocked the arrogant 10th Elite Sigu Division for seven days and seven nights!
When the department was ordered to retreat, more than half of their troops were injured and killed. It is said that the regiment with the largest losses were the only one left after more than 2,000 people fighting. Therefore, I suggest you should look at a person with a better overall look."
"How do you know?"
"Every time you go to the division for a meeting, have you never been to the library? Isn't there an analysis of every opponent by the Eighth Route Army?"
"I have that skill? Let me talk about our neighbor's situation."
"After the Taierzhuang Battle started, the 5th Division, the first main force of the Japanese, went south from Qingdao and rushed towards Xuzhou with great momentum. At this time, the troops around Commander Li of the War Zone who had some combat effectiveness had been sent out to fight, leaving only three miscellaneous generals, Pang Bingxun, Qin Dechun and Miao Chengliu.
Commander-in-Chief Li had no choice but to raise one from the short group and sent Commander Pang, who was slightly more capable among the three to block the Sakagaki Division. Commander Li was originally helpless, but unexpectedly he had an unexpected effect. Seishiro Sakagaki is a Chinese master. He had already heard of the famous "tumbler" Pang Bingxun. He underestimated the enemy and sent only a large group of troops to "drive away" Pang Bingxun. As a result, he was beaten so hard that he could not find North and retreated in a panic.
Sakagaki was dissatisfied and sent another gang to launch a fierce attack on Pang Bingxun's position. Pang Bingxun was not showing any weakness and commanded the troops to fight bloody battles. For five days and five nights, he did not let the Sakagaki Division go further.
At that time, there were no less than dozens of Chinese and foreign journalists and friendly military officers watching the battle with the army in Xuzhou. No one expected that the best "Divine Army" would be frustrated by the unknown "miscellaneous" Chinese troops. Newspapers were overwhelming and cheers were everywhere.
Seishiro Sakagaki was so angry that he had to concentrate the main force of the Fifth Division on the attack. Later, Pang Bingxun's Third Army had more than 13,000 people, with more than 8,000 casualties. The scene was terrible. Seeing that reinforcements were delayed, Pang Bingxun even generated electricity to the war zone, and decided to survive and die with his position.
At this critical moment, General Zhang *zhong, who had a grudge against Pang Bingxun, led the 59th Army to the battlefield and rescued Pang Bingxun and the remaining troops of the Third Corps with less than 5,000 people. It can be seen that he fought the Japanese army for his life."
"So, this is an expert in foreign wars and an expert in civil wars?" Captain Lu was so surprised that he heard this and muttered: "I underestimated our neighbor... Forget it, you should go!"
Ding Deyi put down the tea jar that he had drunk: "Do you think I can leave now?"
Captain Lu thought to himself that it was impossible for me to go there in person: "What do you think you should do?"
