Since the beginning of the Japanese encirclement and suppression campaign, the military region headquarters, as the core organization of the military region, has been in the process of being transferred.
Because when the troops were separated from the main force of the division, they only brought one radio to contact the Eighth Route Army headquarters. After the military region established military divisions, the communication with each military division has always relied on cavalry correspondents.
However, as the military region headquarters and the lower military division headquarters began to move continuously, the military region also lost contact with the lower military divisions.
Although Nie Rongzhen believed in the commanding abilities of the following military commanders, he believed that they could repel the Japanese attack even without military command, and ultimately achieved victory in the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign.
However, as the commander of the military region and responsible for the entire military region's anti-encirclement and suppression operations, Nie Rongzhen could not possibly regard himself as blind.
Therefore, as soon as the contact with the military divisions below was severed, Nie Rongzhen sent out all the cavalry communication troops that the military region could send out. While searching for the major military divisions, he could also bring him the latest intelligence from outside the mountains.
As soon as the headquarters was moved to a new small mountain village, Nie Rongzhen ordered the Communications Department to set up a radio station and contact the Eighth Route Army Headquarters to see if he could get some useful information from the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. After all, the Eighth Route Army Headquarters had a much stronger intelligence network than when it was first established.
The military region is more complete!
After the radio station was turned on, anxious Nie Rongzhen stood directly behind the operator, waiting for news.
"Chief, there's a situation. Someone is calling us, and it's one of our own!" Looking at the flashing red light on the radio station, the operator was stunned for a moment, and then shouted excitedly.
"Contact me immediately!" Before the communications officer could speak, Nie Rongzhen behind him rushed to order.
A few minutes later, a message appeared that made the operator very excited. While handing it to Nie Rongzhen, who was a little impatient, he shouted: "I can't believe it, it's Commander Yang of the First Military Division. They have a radio station."
, and also won a great victory!"
"Yang Chengwu has a radio station, and he also won a great victory!" Nie Rongzhen asked with a look of disbelief, then took the telegram and began to browse it.
"How is it possible to eliminate thousands of Japs with more than a thousand broken guns in Yang Chengwu's hands? Even if the military region gathers all its main forces, it may not be able to annihilate a full brigade of Japs. Is there something wrong with the content of the telegram, or is it
This telegram was not sent by Yang Chengwu and the others at all, it was a fake telegram sent by the Japanese!" Nie Rongzhen immediately raised his doubts.
After reading the telegram, Chief of Staff Tang Yanjie was even more surprised than before. Then he pointed to the contents of the telegram and corrected: "Commander, you are mistaken. It was not Yang Chengwu who commanded the main force of the First Army Division to eliminate the nearly a thousand Japanese. It was them.
Guard company! How many people are there in the first division guard company, and they can actually eliminate nearly a thousand well-equipped Japs? How is it possible!"
"Give me the telegram!" Nie Rongzhen took the telegram again.
"It's true!" he blurted out after reading the telegram, and then continued to ask with an expression of disbelief: "That is even more impossible! Chief of Staff, is it possible that the telegram indicates that the Japanese captured the telegraph operator of the First Military Division and instigated rebellion?
It was sent by our operator!"
"After all, we are still in the midst of a heavy siege by Japanese troops, and any accident may happen!"
Tang Yanjie, who was in charge of all communications and passwords in the military region, refused without thinking: "Impossible, absolutely not possible!"
"Our contact code book is only in the hands of the division commander. Unless the Japanese take over the First Army Division Headquarters and instigate rebellion against the first division commander, they are all old party members and old Red Army members, and they will definitely not instigate rebellion against his back.
!”
"So I am sure that this telegram was sent by Yang Chengwu! As for the content of the telegram, we can re-send it for confirmation!"
Nie Rongzhen is still very confident in the military's confidentiality system.
Seeing that the chief of staff was so sure, Nie Rongzhen believed it, and then ordered the operator in front of him: "Call Yang Chengwu back and verify the results immediately. I want a detailed battle report and battle process!"
The First Military Division Headquarters, Chief of Staff Xiong Botao, who finally received a call back, didn’t know how to send the next telegram when faced with the call back!
"The specific battle process, the commander has gone to the front line, where can I get it!" Xiong Botao said with a look of helplessness.
A staff officer next to him immediately suggested: "Chief of Staff, how about we reply to the commander, we are on our way to the front line. As long as we get to the front line, we will definitely send back the battle process as soon as possible!"
"Commander, if you are in a hurry, we can first send you what we know about the seizures!"
"Yes, that's it!" Xiong Botao decided with a slap on his head.
What he didn't expect was that the reason why Nie Rongzhen was anxious about the battle was not because he was anxious, but because he didn't believe that they could really eliminate so many Japanese soldiers at once!
Soon, Xiong Botao's call back was sent to Tang Yanjie.
Seeing Tang Yanjie's shocked face, he couldn't say a word for a long time. Nie Rongzhen immediately asked: "Now that the battle process has been revealed, is it true that the First Military Division's victory in wiping out nearly a thousand Japanese soldiers with just one guard is true?"
"It hasn't been sent yet!" Tang Yanjie replied, shaking his head!
"However, the First Military Division sent us a list of seized heavy weapons! I can't believe that the First Military Division has seized so many heavy weapons that it can directly form an artillery battalion!"
"What? Artillery battalion, how is it possible? Show me quickly!" Nie Rongzhen was also shocked, grabbed the telegram and began to read it.
You won’t know until you see it, but you will be shocked when you see it!
While Nie Rongzhen was still immersed in shock, Tang Yanjie said: "With so many artillery, as well as mountain artillery and infantry artillery, the battle in which the First Army Division wiped out nearly a thousand Japs must be real. But I still haven't figured it out.
How did a company do this?"
"I don't understand either!" Nie Rongzhen suddenly said!
"But when Yang Chengwu and Xiong Botao reach the front line, everything will be clear!"
"I'm thinking now, if the results of the battle are true, then the Japs encircling and suppressing the first military division will definitely stop and retreat. Once the Japs in the first division retreat, a chain reaction will definitely occur among the Japs in other directions and they will follow suit.
We will win the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign! Chief of Staff, please immediately make a copy of our contingency measures based on this unexpected situation, and then find a way to contact several other military divisions!"
"I will continue to follow the radio station and contact Yang Chengwu at any time!"
Wang Ping had no idea that his battle in Luojiawan had caused a sensation in the entire military region.
Now, he was leading some temporary engineers, covered in oil and dirt, to dismantle everything that could be used on the car. Including all the fuel in the car's fuel tank, Wang Ping took out every drop.
Yang Chengwu hurried to Luojiawan. When he saw Wang Ping, he almost didn't recognize the young man covered in oil as Wang Ping. But Wang Ping saw Yang Chengwu at a glance, and then shouted excitedly but not believing it.
