In this battle in history, the Japanese and puppet troops only dispatched a total of more than 40,000 people.
The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region also achieved unprecedented victory in the entire anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, wiping out nearly 6,000 Japanese and puppet troops and seizing a large amount of weapons and equipment.
Now because of Wang Ping's presence, the Japanese and puppet troops dispatched 40,000 Japanese soldiers alone. Including the Imperial Alliance Army, the North China Front Army dispatched a total of 80,000 people.
Of course, the strength of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is also much stronger than in history.
Because the First Division successfully captured Laiyuan City and captured a large amount of weapons and equipment, the First Military Division expanded into a powerful force of three detachments and nine regiments a few months earlier than in history.
Several other military divisions had Wang Ping repair a large number of weapons and equipment that had been damaged by bombings on the battlefield. In addition, the first division had surrendered a lot of weapons and equipment after taking down Laiyuan City. The overall strength was several more than that of the main force in history.
It is precisely because the military region has more than a dozen regiments, large and small, than in history, including independent regiments with strong combat effectiveness. In this anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, the military region annihilated more than twice the number of enemies alone, let alone fought.
A large number of weapons and equipment captured during the annihilation war.
The battle report was sent to the Eighth Route Army headquarters. The deputy commander, who never drank during working hours, drank a large bowl of wine out of joy.
"Boss, Commander Nie did a good job this time. The Japanese army alone had nearly ten thousand people. The Central Army has never wiped out so many Japanese and puppet troops on the frontal battlefield at one time. If such a battle report is sent to Lao Jiang, Lao
Jiang will definitely be shocked!" The chief of staff was also very happy, and it was rare to drive along the line in front of the serious deputy commander.
"Send it, we must send it! Hasn't the Central Army always said that we are roaming without attacking? This is the best reply to the Central Army's statement." The deputy commander said with an affirmative look on his face, and he was very happy except for a bad breath.
.
The chief of staff was stunned, and when he subconsciously raised his concerns, the deputy commander changed the topic and continued: "However, the content of the battle report must be changed!"
"Erase all the information about the independent regiment in the first division in the battle report and report it to the National Government. As for the Yan'an side, forward the original text."
"Some time ago, the Independent Regiment and Wang Ping were already in the limelight due to poison gas bombs. If Chiang Kai-shek knew that tens of thousands of Japanese and puppet soldiers died at his hands, he would definitely not allow such talents to remain in our Eighth Route Army.
!”
"You know, although the gas bomb incident was temporarily solved last time, we all know that there is no smoke without fire. Especially the little devils, if they had not suffered a big loss, they would definitely not use the gas bombs to blackmail themselves. Chiang Kai-shek is not a fool, for sure
We know what happened! So until this matter is completely over, the Independent Group and Wang Ping must not appear again!"
"Also, contact the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region immediately. Now that the battle is over, I want to know what happened that night and ask Wang Ping, the leader of the independent regiment, to personally send him a telegram!"
When the independent regiment headquarters received the telegram from the headquarters forwarded by the military region, Wang Ping immediately realized that he could not hide his unauthorized use of poison gas bombs.
In this case, Wang Ping became calmer.
Seeing the worried expression on the political commissar's face, Wang Ping comforted him directly: "Don't worry, political commissar, I will write the contents of the telegram. The matter has passed. The reason why the headquarters is pursuing you is not against me, Wang Ping, but for the sake of seriousness."
The discipline of our Eighth Route Army will probably result in a serious punishment or demotion."
"We were able to eliminate so many Japs, seize so much equipment, and more importantly, secure our base area. A punishment or demotion would be no problem at all!"
"Besides, I was promoted from a company-level staff officer to a regiment commander in such a short period of time. Looking at our Eighth Route Army, we are definitely unique. Even if I am demoted, it doesn't matter. I just take advantage of this period to take a good rest."
A few hours later, a secret message appeared in the hands of Commander Nie of the Military Region.
"As expected, Chief of Staff, Wang Ping really used poison gas bombs!" Commander Nie cursed in annoyance.
The chief of staff comforted him: "Commander, you can't blame him. If it were me, in that case, in order to protect the base, I would use poison gas bombs!"
Commander Nie shook his head and replied: "I know you are saying nice things to him, but violating discipline is violating discipline."
"Furthermore, Wang Ping's use of poisonous gas bombs almost brought the entire Eighth Route Army into a passive situation. As expected, a very serious punishment will definitely be indispensable. Otherwise, in the future, there will be people in our Eighth Route Army who violate discipline and commit the same crime.
mistake."
"Immediately forward the original text of the secret message to the headquarters. I hope the headquarters' punishment against Wang Ping will not be too severe!"
"Bah!" After reading the telegram, the deputy commander's clenched fist slammed down on the table in front of him out of anger, and then he yelled.
"This Wang Ping really used poison gas bombs. Doesn't he know the discipline of our Eighth Route Army? I will shoot him to serve as a warning to others!"
"Boss, calm down!" the chief of staff quickly advised.
"I agree to punish Wang Ping, but I don't agree to being shot. He is a good fighter, and it would be a pity to shoot him. Moreover, he used poison gas bombs to kill the Japanese and retaliate in kind. I suggest that he be removed from the post of leader of the independent regiment and transferred to
As a staff officer at the headquarters, I will teach him a lesson, and by the way, I will also warn all the cadres in the army not to violate discipline because of temporary pleasure in the future!"
"Too light!" The deputy commander refused without much anger on his face.
"Let him go to the cooking class to carry the big pot and let him calm down for a while. Let other group leaders know that the headquarters attaches great importance to this kind of thing. This will serve as a warning to the monkeys!"
"Then I will immediately give orders to Commander Nie of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region!" The chief of staff, who was afraid that the deputy commander-in-chief might get angry and plan to shoot Wang Ping, quickly replied.
At the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region Headquarters, looking at the telegram sent from the headquarters, both Commander Nie and the Chief of Staff wrinkled up into a big "Sichuan" sign.
He was directly demoted from the leader of the main force to a cook, which shows how angry the head of the headquarters was.
"Commander, we really want to send Wang Ping to the headquarters to work as a cook!" the chief of staff asked reluctantly.
"No! This is because the headquarters doesn't know Wang Ping and just regards Wang Ping as an ordinary regiment leader. We know that Wang Ping played a vital role in winning this counter-encirclement and suppression campaign. Let's not talk about the credit for the first time.
I don't agree with him becoming a cook!" the commander said firmly.
"No, I want to send a telegram to the headquarters. I don't agree to transfer Wang Ping to the headquarters as a cook."
"But the order has been issued, and you know the boss's temper. Just sending a telegram like this will be counterproductive!" the chief of staff reminded with a worried look.
"Then let's make it clear Wang Ping's importance to the military region and his series of military exploits. It's such a waste for such a talent to work as a cook!" Commander Nie said this in a very firm tone, without any trace of doubt.
Consultative tone.
Suddenly, Commander Nie thought of Wang Ping's ability to repair weapons and equipment, his eyes lit up and he said.
"We can suggest that the headquarters transfer Wang Ping from the army. Isn't the military region going to set up an arsenal? Let him be the director. From the commander of the main force to the director of the arsenal, it should be a very important step for our military cadres.
The punishment will not bury the talent!"
"That's it. I'll send a telegram to the headquarters right away. I'm sure this talent is Wang Ping!"
