Suddenly there was a thunderbolt in the sky. Ma Weilong glanced at the sky and felt that something was wrong with the sky. He knew that it was going to rain again. The sky in the mountains and the baby's face could change at any time. Ma Weilong thought for a moment and said, "Go on, everyone."
Repair it on the spot and have lunch first."
After giving the order, the Youth Army immediately stopped slowly, and the Huotou Army began to prepare lunch. The soldiers quickly set up a temporary headquarters. Ma Weilong walked in and said to the staff officer next to him, "How is the news in Hengyang?"
"Everything is normal in Hengyang. Mr. Hu called and asked us to play more on the road and not to compete with him for credit..." As he said that, the staff officer looked at Ma Weilong with a bit of laughter and tears.
Ma Weilong chuckled and said, "Mr. Hu said this on purpose. He should have seen something from the Japs' attack. It seems that the Japs are preparing to encircle the point and call for reinforcements, which is the same as ours."
The staff officer asked, "Do we need to report it immediately?"
Ma Weilong thought for a moment, sighed and said, "But we have no evidence. Do you think Wang Yaowu and those people are fools? Does Xue Yue really see everything? Everyone is looking at Hengyang now. If our reinforcements are too slow,
It led to the fall of Hengyang. Who will bear the responsibility? You? Or me? Or Commander Xue? Or Young Master? Isn't that why we are so anxious? However, we can rush to send troops, but don't rush to Hengyang. Hu Lian won't
He will lie to us, and he will not use it even if he says he doesn’t need it.”
The staff officer nodded in understanding. Indeed, this time the Youth Army sent out troops in an extremely hasty manner, as if they were rushing for something. Not only that, they also deployed half of their troops in advance to establish an independent division, and then replenished half of them.
The new recruits came in, and the combat effectiveness of the current unit has dropped a lot, as if they knew something bad would happen. The staff officer looked around, smiled slightly, and thought to himself, "And there are a lot of my own comrades coming in."
"Report...report!"
"Crack" a bolt of lightning started. Ma Weilong looked at the communications soldier and said, "Speak!"
"The 74th Army in front of us has an urgent call. When the 74th Army marched to AR County, it was suddenly ambushed by the Japanese army. The auxiliary 63rd Army has been repelled. The 74th Army is now trapped in AR County and cannot break out. We are requesting reinforcements from surrounding friendly forces.
.The Chairman of the Generalissimo ordered our army to speed up and advance towards Anren immediately to rescue the 74th Army!" As he said that, the communications soldier handed the military order to Ma Weilong.
Ma Weilong took a look and said with a smile, "Are you kidding me? When did the Japanese actually learn from us and start ambushing us?"
The staff officer next to him immediately said, "I saw that the Japs must have been bruised and bleeding under Hengyang City, so I had to learn to behave better. Otherwise, they should have blocked them directly."
Ma Weilong nodded and said, "The 74th Army is the main force of our army and will not be defeated so easily. An Ren...bring me the map."
A military map was quickly opened. Ma Weilong looked at the map and said, "The Japs should have occupied several highlands near Anren and formed a circle around the 74th Army. We are now in LH County, but the terrain in CL County is also very difficult.
It's so dangerous...Immediately send a battalion to the front to explore the road. We must ensure the safety of the surrounding area. We can't enter the encirclement."
——Hengyang
"What a waste? How can a soldier be made a dumpling like this?" Hu Lian said with a smile, "Damn it, Wang Yaowu said back then that I wasn't good at studying, and he wasn't that good either!"
Wang Yaowu is from the third phase of Huangpu and is Hu Lian's senior.
"Okay, we are all students from Huangpu, there is no need." Fang Xianjue said with a smile.
Hu Lian twisted his lips and said to Li Yutang who was sitting on top, "Chief Li, most of the Japanese have withdrawn by now. I wonder if we can launch a counterattack?"
Li Yutang couldn't help but feel a little moved after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he sighed and said, "No... Heng's position is too important now. He can't help but make a mistake. What if the Japs feint a shot and then turn around?"
What should we do? Even if the 74th Army is completely annihilated, the impact on China will not be as great as the loss of Hengyang!"
Several other generals also nodded and said, "Yes, it's better to be careful."
Hu Lian said helplessly, "Okay then, let's continue to defend. Anyway, there is enough food and grass, so there shouldn't be any problem."
——The Japanese army is good at attacking key points and providing reinforcements. If I break through, I will be completely annihilated. If I defend, I may survive." Looking at the telegram Wang Yaowu sent to him, Agent Jiang couldn't help but think of eight years ago, when he was still alive.
The JX and the Chinese Red Party fought to the death, and Wang Yaowu's brigade was also surrounded and defended for more than a month.
"Jiansheng, what do you think of the current war situation?" Agent Jiang asked Bai Chongxi next to him.
Bai Chongxi smiled and said, "Commissioner, I think the current situation is not bad. Our goal is actually to defend Hengyang and block the Japanese offensive. So even though the Japanese army has surrounded the 74th Army, it also reflects the Japanese aircraft's embarrassment from the side.
Otherwise, they should have blocked the 74th Army and continued to attack Shiniufeng, but now? Shiniufeng was only bombed by artillery and aircraft, but the Japanese infantry attacked very little. It can be seen that the Japanese army is at the end of its war effort. I think the Battle of Hengyang,
Our army will win!"
When Agent Jiang heard Bai Chongxi's analysis, he immediately felt relieved and said, "What Jiansheng said makes sense. I was a little anxious just now. Go and order the troops around the 74th Army to attack steadily and encircle the Japanese army.
Order Xue Yue and Gu Zhutong to continue to send additional troops to rescue the 74th Army. In addition, order Wang Yaowu of the 74th Army to defend to the end, absolutely for more than 10 days."
——Anren
"Military seat, the Japanese are attacking us again. They are absolutely crazy!" A gray-faced officer walked into the commanding unit, Wang Yaowu, and said.
Wang Yaowu had just read the telegram and said, "I understand, tell the brothers, these Japanese army can't defeat Hengyang, so they think that our 74th Army is soft persimmons, but are we really soft persimmons? Use our bullets and artillery shells to tell the little devils,
We are the real tough guys!”
When the officer saw Wang Yaowu change his panicked look, he suddenly felt confident and said, "Yes!"
At the Japanese position outside Anren City, looking at the advancing Japanese troops, Ananwei nodded a few times and said, "Very good. Although Wang Yaowu's troops are also strong among the National Army, if they encounter our imperial army, they will have to admit defeat!"
"
A staff officer next to him cheered and said, "The imperial army of the empire will be invincible!"
"Pah!" A communications soldier came over and saluted and said, "Report, urgent call from Nanjing."
Anami glanced at it briefly and said, "Oh, it belongs to General Nishio, let me take a look... huh?"
The staff officer next to him asked, "What's wrong, Commander?"
Anan Weiji said somewhat unconfidently, "General Xiwei asked me, if I capture the 74th Army and then repel the three or four Nationalist troops who are chasing me, can I still capture Hengyang?"
Anan Weiji turned around a few times with his hands behind his back, patted his bald head and said, "Indeed, our strategic goal is Hengyang. Even if we capture the 74th Army now, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat Hengyang. I'm really too stupid."
!”
In fact, it's not that Anami Yoshiki is too stupid, but that the Japanese army generally only looks at the immediate future in terms of strategy and doesn't pay much attention to what happens next. Nishio didn't think there was anything wrong with Anami Yoshiki's strategy at first, and it was still Ishihara Wanji in Tokyo.
After learning about it, he immediately sent an emergency telegram to Nanjing. Only then did Xiwei suddenly realize that he was about to capture Hengyang and open up the important transportation area. If he went to attack the 74th Army now, even if he could defeat it, he might have to attack Hengyang again later.
More than twenty days later, new reinforcements will arrive.
Today's Hengyang is completely different from that in history. In history, there was only one Tenth Army, and it was the Tenth Army that retreated to Hengyang. But now its strength has doubled, and its weapons are even different. In terms of food, grass and ammunition,
On the other hand, Jiang Cheng prepared a year's worth of food for the garrison in Hengyang. Every time Hu Lian went to the underground warehouse and looked at the piles of white rice, the question on his mind was how to eat it by then. Now,
In Hengyang, even the coolies eat so much white rice that they don’t want to eat it anymore.
Anan Weiji was in a dilemma. If he could not capture the 74th Army quickly, he might not be able to defeat Hengyang in the end. Anan Weiji immediately ordered the troops to speed up the attack, and the 63rd Army, the Youth Army and other troops also began to contact the Japanese army. Anan
The dream of Hengyang is getting further and further away.
On the northeastern land thousands of miles away from Hengyang, in a large forest, a team was marching.
"Go faster!" Ma Sanpao stood on a high ground and said to the troops. He looked at the troops carrying steel guns on their backs, wearing neat military uniforms and flying red anti-union flags, and his heart was filled with pride.
More than a year had passed since that change. Ma Sanpao took out a small notebook from his pocket, which contained his battlefield diary. In this year, he had changed a lot. Not only had he learned
He had written many words and joined the party. More importantly, he had become an outstanding commander and combatant. These words were not said by him, but by Ye Jianying, deputy commander of the Anti-Japanese Alliance.
Ma Sanpao saw Gao Yanan coming over, ran down quickly, and said with a calm face, "Daughter-in-law, are you tired? How about I carry you on my back? Are you hungry? I'll get you a can if you're hungry."
Gao Yanan kicked Ma Sanpao in the butt and said, "What are you talking about? You should walk faster. Look at the political commissars. They are all carrying guns for the sick soldiers. If you have no strength and nowhere to do it, you
Just go and carry other people's soldiers, and stop chattering here."
Ma Sanpao was asking for trouble, and with a crooked mouth, he actually walked over and carried the soldier who was being supported on his back.
"Batalion Commander, I can walk by myself."
"Nonsense! You can walk and crawl. Our battalion will be the last one when the time comes. Can you shoulder this responsibility?" Ma Sanpao cursed, glanced at Gao Yanan, nodded at her, and immediately smiled.
Started walking quickly.
"Speaking of, Third Artillery, why did the military department suddenly ask us all to go back?" Political Commissar Long Yan also came over and asked.
"How do I know? It's because a military order suddenly came. It's not just us. I asked the surrounding brother troops and they all received the order. I think there is a high probability that there will be a big move." Ma Sanpao said as he walked.
Long Yan shook his head and said, "In the past year or so, our troops have developed very quickly. Everyone's combat effectiveness has increased, and there is no shortage of food and clothing. However, the Japanese have developed faster. In the northeast, they have stationed
There are hundreds of thousands, but now we have less than 30,000 or 40,000 people. From a strategic point of view, we can only contain them and cannot counterattack."
Ma Sanpao pouted and said, "Are you scared, kid? Back then, dozens of us dared to fight against the kid, but now we don't dare?"
Long Yan rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'm talking about strategy. As a military commander, you still need to learn!"
"We're here! We're here! We're at the headquarters!!" the deputy battalion commander in front said loudly.
The Anti-Alliance Headquarters is located deep in DXAL. Only the military commanders of each battalion or above know the specific location here. All troops are asked to take a detour when they come back, and cannot come back directly, in order to prevent being discovered. Now tens of thousands of people have gathered here.
The people are so lively.
"Oh, my friend!" Ma Sanpao, who had finally arranged his troops and was about to walk around, suddenly saw a fat military officer rushing towards him. Ma Sanpao looked at it and laughed and said, "Fat Jin!!
"She hugged him and said, "I fucking miss you so much. Didn't you get sent to North Korea? How about it? Does it feel good to go back to your hometown?"
It was Kim Il-sung who had developed a comrade-in-arms relationship with Ma Sanpao when they were in the special operations camp. Kim Il-sung smiled and said, "It's really good. You don't know, I'm already a legend in North Korea.
I wonder if my movies and novels will be everywhere in a few decades? Didn’t the political commissar say that we are all heroes and will become the protagonists praised by countless people in movies in the future.”
Ma Sanpao smiled and hit him and said, "Come on, the most you can do is hang it on the wall or on the screen. Haha, you are here, what happened?"
Kim Il-sung also shook his head and said, "I don't know. I think this situation means it's not a big deal."
Ma Sanpao and other commanders were wondering, while Jiang Cheng, Yang Jingyu, Ye Jianying, Wang Jiaxiang and others in the wooden house were having a pleasant conversation.
"Wow, I didn't expect that it only took so long for us to regain a large area of land. I think the final victory of the Anti-Japanese War is also late!" Yang Jingyu has insisted on resisting Japan for so many years, and has never been able to win more than a year ago.
With such confidence, due to the continuous increase in the strength of the Japanese army in the Northeast, in order to prevent the Anti-Japanese Alliance forces from being absolutely hit, for more than a year, the Anti-Japanese Alliance has been constantly attacking various towns, police stations and Japanese immigration points, which has always been a threat to the city.
Instead of capturing the enemy, they often lured the Japanese troops to attack, and then retreated to the mountainous areas, summoning the anti-alliance forces from all over the area, and surrounded and attacked the Japanese troops who were deeply entrenched.
