Stalin looked at the telegram and waved his pipe happily and said, "Our Chinese comrades have done a good job. They started taking action before we issued the order. We just need such internationalist fighters. Tell Zhukov that the Chinese Red Party is attacking.
The Japanese army's back made him feel relieved that what he faced this time would definitely not be the entire main force of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army's attack time would definitely be delayed."
Dimitrov had a smile on his face next to him. You must know that after the Seventh Congress of the Red International, Dimitrov was fully responsible for China's issues. The various actions of the Chinese Red Party some time ago made him feel extremely passive and
Worrying, but now it seems that although the Chinese Red Party has its own ideas, it is still generally oriented towards the Soviet Union.
Dimitrov said, "Comrade Stalin, the Chinese Red Party tells us their loyalty with actions. I think we must also respond to them in public opinion to strengthen their determination to fight against Japanese imperialism. Moreover, we should encourage
Chongqing, send troops together. Now the Chinese Red Party is attacking Hebei from the north and east. If the Chongqing government can attack Kaifeng and Zhengzhou from Luoyang, it will greatly support the Chinese Red Party's offensive."
Stalin nodded and said, "Very good. If it can really succeed, the Japanese's main attention must return to China, and we will be safe again in the Far East. Hitler has been too calm recently. I always thought he was planning something."
What, I hope it won't be attacking us together with Japan."
Dimitrov couldn't help but ask, "There is Poland between Germany and us. If Germany wants to attack us, doesn't it have to solve the Polish problem?"
Stalin said with a wise expression, "Poland is just a dog bred by Britain and France. If Germany is willing to attack us in exchange, Chamberlain will kick Poland's ass and make them surrender to Germany the next day. I doubt it very much."
Hitler is doing this now, but our power in Germany has been greatly reduced, and many things cannot be inquired about."
Beria quickly said, "This is my dereliction of duty. I will strengthen the intelligence work against Germany."
Stalin shook his hand and said comfortingly, "Our enemies are very ferocious. It is because of this that we need to be more united and strong. Let's do a good job in responding to the Chinese Red Party this time."
——Chongqing
"This is a great attack, this is a just war. When the Japanese imperialists attacked the great Soviets, the equally great Chinese Red Party brazenly roared to defend the Soviets and attacked the Japanese troops in Hebei..."
"Click" Agent Jiang turned off the radio, his face gloomy as if water was dripping from his face.
"My Chairman, this is just a one-sided statement by the Soviets. The intelligence we received did not say that the Eighth Route Army was fighting under the banner of defending the Soviet Union this time. They were fighting under the banner of returning our country and restoring our country. Therefore,
I'm wondering if we should seek verification." Lin Sen said, somewhat worried that the red and white parties would break up.
"What else is there to prove? Talking without doing anything is more trustworthy and hateful than doing without talking. The master has spoken, how can this slave still say no? And according to the division of military regions, when did Hebei become the Eighth Route Army?
In the war zone?" Jiang Jie's anger could already emerge from his eyes. If it weren't for Lin Sen who spoke, he might have thrown a teacup away.
"Hebei is behind enemy lines and does not belong to any war zone." Lin Sen continued.
"Then Tokyo is not included in the division of war zones. Why doesn't the Eighth Route Army go to attack Tokyo?" As he spoke, Agent Jiang also felt that his tone was a bit bad. He coughed and said, "Chairman, don't worry. I, Mr. Jiang, know the importance."
Yes, but the dissent of the Red Party is also clear. Shanxi being controlled by the Red Party is my bottom line. Hebei must not be controlled by the Red Party anymore. If this continues, I am afraid that the anti-Japanese resistance is over and we will fight against the Soviet Union.
."
Lin Sen sighed and said, "I know I can't stop you. Speaking of fighting against the Reds, when the former Prime Minister went there, I was the first to ask that Rong Hong be turned into an anti-Red. But times have changed. Now it's best to
The important goal is to drive away the Japanese, and everything else can be left alone first."
As he spoke, Lin Sen said in a low voice, "As long as we win the final victory in the resistance against Japan, you, Jiang Jie, will be the first person in thousands of years to completely defeat the alien invasion after losing nearly half of the country.
Who can compete with us for the merit of inviting heaven? If the Red Party dares to use guns, it will not be difficult for us to deal with them when the time comes."
Agent Jiang disapproved and said, "Mr. Lin is right. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Lin Sen watched Agent Jiang leave and couldn't help but shake his head. His heart was full of annoyance and worry. He opened his cabinet and took out a white bone hidden in it. He wiped it carefully and said, "It's better for you. All worries are gone."
No more, don’t worry, when the anti-Japanese war is over, I will go back to stay with you and talk to you every day..."
When Agent Jiang returned to his office and asked Dai Li to come over, he lowered his head in thought and said nothing. At this time, Chen Brai handed a telegram to Agent Jiang and said, "Commissioner, the eldest son has written. Please take a look."
Agent Jiang didn't want to look at it and said directly, "Just tell me the general idea."
Chen Brai nodded and said, "The eldest son hopes to send troops to Nanchang to respond to the Eighth Route Army's offensive in the north."
"What nonsense!" Agent Jiang suddenly shouted, "Let me take him with me to Ganzhou. I see that his head is getting more and more dizzy, hum!"
Seeing Agent Jiang like this, Chen Brai quickly retreated. Dai Li saw Chen Brai coming out, went in and saluted Agent Jiang and said, "Principal, are you looking for a student?"
Agent Jiang nodded, beckoned and said, "Come here, I have something to ask you to do."
——Yixian
Chen Geng looked at the flowing Yishui River, pointed to the opposite side and said, "There are still at most two thousand Japanese in Yi County, but this defensive position is not easy to fight. It is already noon, and we will start attacking at one o'clock in the afternoon."
, are the artillery teams ready? Now they are the main force."
Chen Zaidao said, "Our rocket launchers are all concentrated in Shikang Village. Where the terrain is higher, we can increase our firing range. During the raid last night, we had already attacked the Japanese headquarters. Thanks to our underground
Party, otherwise how would we know where the Japanese headquarters is?"
Chen Geng nodded and said, "The underground party members are indispensable. The Yishui River is not wide. There is flat land on both sides. The Japanese side has fortifications, but our side is unobstructed, so we must be fast and the troops cannot be stranded."
By the river, the Japanese have destroyed the bridge, so we can only build pontoons and boats. How long will it take to build our pontoon?"
"I have been to the engineering camp. Building a pontoon bridge is not a problem, but we still lack a few boats. I wonder how about using rafts?" Chen Zaidao suggested.
Chen Geng nodded and said, "I think it's okay. Attack from the left, right and center together, three regiments at a time, and use more smoke bombs. It's best to do it all at once."
Chen Zaidao sighed and went down to arrange it.
Time passed little by little, and before Chen Geng started to attack, more than a dozen black spots appeared in the sky.
"Damn it, it's the devil's fly. It's about to lay maggots again. Quick, pull out the anti-aircraft machine guns and everyone take cover." Chen Geng quickly commanded.
The Japanese plane roared through the sky and arrived at the Yishuihe position. The Japanese soldiers in the Yishuihe fortification shouted excitedly when they saw the plane, and some Japanese soldiers even opened fire in celebration.
The Japanese plane circled around and returned to the sky above the Eighth Route Army position. The Japanese plane, which had already suffered many losses, did not dare to drop too low. It maintained an altitude of more than 1,000 meters and began to drop bombs.
This bullet is also full of bullets, and it seems that it is not intended to kill at all.
"No, this kid wants to use the plane to delay time and prevent us from crossing the river. The Japanese reinforcements will arrive at any time, and Wang Shusheng's guerrillas can't hold them back for too long. We can't wait any longer and must attack by force."
Chen Geng reacted quickly and said.
"This...hey! Order the troops, the plan remains unchanged." Chief of Staff Li Jukui said helplessly.
When the time reached thirteen o'clock, the rocket team located in Shikang Village was the first to make a sound. Nearly a hundred rockets were fired in one breath, and they quickly rushed towards the Yishui River defense fortifications. Two hundred artillery pieces of various types also opened fire in sequence, one
The shells flew across the river like locusts, exploding in the bunkers and barbed wire fences one after another. Some shells emitted bursts of smoke that filled the position.
The Japanese army quickly began to counterattack. Because they could not see clearly, they could only shoot blindly. The Eighth Route Army and the Sixty-first Army ran quickly towards the river. One by one, the rafts were thrown into the river. More soldiers from the engineering battalion carried the wood.
A pontoon bridge began to be built.
When the Japanese plane saw the Eighth Route Army starting to attack, it immediately lowered the plane and opened fire on the Eighth Route Army by the river, throwing bombs. For a while, the Eighth Route Army by the river was blown into pieces with blood.
"Tongtongtongtong" bullets that are larger than ordinary bullets are fired from the thick barrel. This is an anti-aircraft machine gun. The 12.7 mm bullet is enough to cut a strong man in two. More than a dozen anti-aircraft machine guns are constantly chasing the flying machine gun.
Japanese planes were flying back and forth, and soon, two or three planes were emitting black smoke.
The smoke from the smoke bombs quickly dissipated, and the Japanese machine guns and artillery fired more and more accurately. Seeing that the attack was blocked, Chen Geng couldn't help but become nervous.
"All Red Party members, take a step forward!" Li Long shouted loudly, and two to three hundred people in the army took a step forward in unison.
Li Long nodded, pulled out his broadsword, and held a shell gun in his hand and said, "Comrades, I won't say much. The Japanese planes are flying maggots, and we don't have much time. If the stalemate continues like this, the Japanese reinforcements are about to arrive. In one sentence,
, When we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win! Attack it, fight it, kill it, tell the little devils, let alone this small Yishui River, even the Yangtze River and the Yellow River cannot stop us Red Party members. From now on, even the Pacific Ocean, we will not be able to stop us.
We must cross over, capture the Japanese Emperor alive, and let him atone for the war. Okay, let’s not talk about it anymore, the Third Independent Regiment! Attack!!! Tian Jie, my life is in your hands. I can’t beat the cannon to the death, but I can’t.
Got it!"
After saying that, Li Long took the lead in carrying a raft and was about to rush forward.
"Li Long, what do you want to do? Are you a commanding officer? Or an ordinary soldier?" Zhao Gang hurried over and said.
"Old Zhao, when did this happen? Where do you have time to talk about this? When I come back, I will let you talk about it all night." With that, Li Long started running.
Zhao Gang looked at it and stamped his feet, grabbed a rifle with one hand, and followed behind.
"Old Zhao, this is a fight, why are you joining in the fun?" Li Long said anxiously when he saw Zhao Gang behind him.
"You Li Da Tuanzi ordered all the Red Party members to come forward. I, Zhao Gang, am no less senior than you Li Long in terms of party membership, so I will naturally come forward." After saying this, Zhao Gang ran in front of Li Long and said, "Comrades, speed up!
Capture Yishui River and liberate Yixian County!"
After Tian Jie carefully calculated, he shouted, "All artillery, cover the area of A-D 26, one smoke grenade, already Ding 25 area, four consecutive shots, also add a smoke grenade."
Bang bang bang, the artillery shells were fired again, and the smoke soon filled the Japanese army. This time, even Li Long's attacking troops were submerged in the smoke. Li Long threw the raft into the water, and then quickly
He stepped forward and ordered the troops to row the raft quickly.
Chen Geng watched the troops on the left advancing rapidly and couldn't help but ask, "Whose troops are they that are so brave?"
Chen Zaidao took one look and smiled and said, "Who else could it be? That guy Li Long. Hey, you see, Wang Jinshan is also anxious."
Sure enough, the 772nd Regiment saw the Dusan Regiment actually running to the front. Wang Jinshan held a military flag in one hand and a shell gun in the other, shouting and getting on the pontoon. The shells kept exploding on the water, but he ignored it and a stray bullet passed through.
There was a bloodstain on his face. He wiped it hard, threw the military flag to the soldiers next to him, took the Czech machine gun, and fired at the Japanese bunker. While shooting, he shouted, "Comrades, charge! Kill over!"
"
Another round of rockets was launched. Although the rockets did not cause much damage to the fortifications, the horrific scene was enough to scare everyone. The Japanese planes also ran out of bombs and bullets, and dropped four planes.
Finally, he reluctantly left.
The reduction in air pressure boosted the morale of the soldiers. At this time, bursts of gunfire came from behind the Japanese position.
Li Long couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and asked, "What the hell is going on? Don't stop, keep paddling, no matter what he does, let's go ashore first."
Behind the Japanese defensive position, a unit had already invaded the Japanese position.
"Captain, will we really be accepted by the Eighth Route Army like this? We are traitors." A soldier said fearfully.
"Pah!" the person who was called the group leader slapped him and said, "What kind of traitor? I am... This is what Guan Yunchang did when he was in the Cao camp and his heart was in the Han Dynasty, okay?"
After saying that, when the regiment leader saw someone about to charge, he quickly stopped him and said, "Charge for what? We can just harass you here. The Eighth Route Army is a natural force. Even without us, it can win. What's the rush? Wait until then."
Now, let’s attack again.”
"Bomb" a bunker was blown open. Shen Lang waved his rifle and stabbed a Japanese soldier to death. Several grenades flew from behind him into the trench. Several Japanese soldiers who had not yet fired fell down in the explosion. Suddenly,
A bunker spit out tongues of fire and hit the two soldiers behind Shen Lang. Shen Lang quickly rolled into the trench.
"No queens!" Shen Lang shouted loudly. Nowadays, the Eighth Route Army is accustomed to a set of tactics. When encountering a bunker, as long as recoilless rifles can be used, recoilless rifles will be used. Unless there is no other way, otherwise, generally
No need to heap human life, this brave warrior is worth more than anything else.
An artillery shell accurately hit the bunker. The shock wave of the armor-breaking shell caused countless rocks to fly out from the inside of the bunker, killing the Japanese soldiers in the bunker. Blood immediately flowed all over the ground.
Chen Geng watched the blue sky and white sun flag being planted on the Japanese army's position, nodded and applauded and said, "This Dusan Regiment has made great achievements, I want to ask for credit for them."
"Brigadier, we found that there is a regiment of puppet troops behind the Japanese army. The family members of this regiment are all from Yixian County. They are probably afraid that we will clean them up if we win. This is a telegram sent by our underground party,
There were also our people in that regiment. The Japanese did not dare to let them go to the front line, but they ended up taking the back route." Chen Zaidao said while looking at the telegram.
"Well... this is the period of resistance against Japan. We must fight for all the strength, even if they revolt on the battlefield." Chen Geng thought for a while and finally nodded.
