Chapter 246 Military Division attaches great importance to
Staff Officer Zhou knew the inside story and quickly explained: "Commander, it's not that they don't want to report it, it's that there is no way!"
"Up to now, we have not had direct contact with the Lingqiu Anti-Japanese Guerrillas. All reports and orders must be sent through the Lingqiu underground party organization!"
"A few days ago, the Japanese army held a celebration exhibition in Lingqiu County. With the cooperation and support of the guerrillas, the underground party successfully destroyed the celebration exhibition."
"In order to avoid exposing the target, all underground party members went into hiding. It was not until yesterday morning that someone sneaked out of the county and sent the relevant report. I just received the report."
The commander slowly calmed down, and what Staff Zhou said was true.
The base area has just been established and is imperfect in many aspects, especially in terms of communication.
Because the Eighth Route Army lacks a radio station, all communications are through letters. Not to mention, for the sake of confidentiality and safety, all communications are single-line. Problems in any link may lead to interruption of contact. These problems do exist.
After taking a deep breath, he stared at Staff Zhou and asked: "Where is their report? Where is it? Give it to me quickly!"
"It's in my hand!"
Staff Officer Zhou handed over the report he had found.
The report was written by the underground party. They only knew that the guerrillas had three victories in the Hongquan Village stronghold and killed hundreds of Japanese puppet troops. They did not know the detailed process, so they wrote it very simply.
The commander only took two minutes to read it and then handed the report to the chief of staff.
"Chief of Staff, what do you think?"
the chief of staff asked as soon as he looked at the commander.
"This battle is very mysterious and risky. Although the content of the report is very simple, the risks can still be seen!" the chief of staff replied with a frown.
The commander nodded and affirmed: "It is indeed very mysterious, but as long as the entire battle process is arranged carefully enough, it can definitely be done!"
"If the content of the report is true, and they really fought three battles and won three victories in a row, then the command level of this guerrilla captain is really not simple!"
The chief of staff said: "The report was sent by the underground party organization, and the content must be true!"
The commander frowned and said nothing. He understood the deep meaning hidden in the chief of staff's words.
The report is true, and the three battles and three victories are also true. The combat effectiveness of the Lingqiu Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force must also be true and should not be underestimated. In addition, the captain's command level is acceptable, so he can definitely participate in this anti-mopping battle.
The commander also has this impulse, but he is much calmer.
This counter-mopping operation is really too important. The entire responsibility for the safety of the military region agencies lies with you, and there must be no accidents.
I have never seen this guerrilla group, and no one in the entire division has ever seen it. Based on the report in front of me and everyone's inference, would it be too risky to rashly let them harass the puppet troops for more than 2,000 days?
Once an accident occurs, the anti-mopping up situation in the entire division will definitely deteriorate rapidly.
It may even affect the dispersion of the entire military region and put military region agencies in danger.
However, the military subdivision now has no troops to deploy, and this guerrilla force has become the subdivision's only hope.
The commander, who was in a complicated mood, thought for a long time but did not have the courage to make a decision. He finally decided to learn more about them before issuing an order.
"Are there any other reports related to this guerrilla group!"
"Also, who is the captain of this guerrilla group? Can the division find information about him? The more detailed the better!"
Staff Officer Zhou quickly handed over the two reports he had just found.
"There are two more reports, one is a report on the formation of the anti-Japanese guerrillas, and the other is a report on the reappointment of the guerrilla captain!"
"According to the report of the Lingqiu underground party organization: The predecessor of the Lingqiu Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force was the three wounded teams left behind by the 686 Regiment when it evacuated Lingqiu, with more than 100 people. After being heavily encircled and suppressed by the Japanese army, the number was reduced by half. In order to concentrate its forces
In order to improve their combat effectiveness and improve the harsh anti-Japanese situation in Lingqiu, the underground party organization in Lingqiu proposed to keep them in Lingqiu and form the Lingqiu Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force!"
"Originally, we appointed a deputy company commander as the captain, but when the order was passed to the guerrillas, the deputy company commander had already died, and a platoon leader was temporarily led. Not only did he rescue two other teams of wounded soldiers from the heavy encirclement of the Japanese and puppet troops,
Come out, integrate them together, form a guerrilla force, and capture a large number of puppet prisoners to replenish the troops!"
"The second report reminded us to appoint this platoon leader as the guerrilla leader, and reported the size of the guerrillas at that time!"
"The total strength is more than one hundred, which is equivalent to our company, but the equipment is very good. Not only does each man have a rifle, but he is also equipped with a crooked handle and a grenade!"
After carefully reading the two reports, the commander frowned visibly and kept repeating the word "Li Hao" with a thoughtful look on his face.
Suddenly, his frown relaxed, and a smile quickly flashed across his face.
He shouted excitedly to the Chief of Staff: "Chief of Staff, I know who this Li Hao is in the report!"
"If I guessed correctly, during our Long March, the headquarters gave him an army-wide commendation. We also had a special discussion about him at that time, saying that we must thank him if we have the opportunity to meet him!"
"I remembered!" the chief of staff shouted with a look of sudden realization.
"The founder of the grievance movement, it is precisely because of his grievance movement that our team did not become smaller and smaller!"
"Isn't this kid in the Fifth Army Corps? Why did he end up in the Third Army Corps? We thought he had died following the Fifth Army Corps!"
"This shows that God is helping our Red Army!" the commander replied happily.
"He was able to summarize the grievance movement at such a young age, which shows that his ability is very extraordinary. In addition, he was able to go out on the Long March, lead a group of wounded soldiers to fight the situation in front of him in Lingqiu, fight three battles, and kill hundreds
The Japanese and puppet troops show that his military command ability is also very good!"
The chief of staff affirmed: "I agree with your judgment, commander!"
"Since we know that Comrade Li Hao is very capable and the combat effectiveness of the guerrillas is there, I suggest that the Japanese and puppet mopping up troops passing by Lingqiu be left to them to harass and drag them in Lingqiu at all costs.
At least ten days."
After laughing, the commander's face quickly returned to seriousness when it came to business.
Staring at the chief of staff, he shook his head and replied: "You can't give the order yet!"
"These are all our guesses and judgments, and they are not true. This task is too heavy. Even if their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated, they may not be able to complete it!"
"What should we do?" the chief of staff asked anxiously.
The commander replied with a serious face: "It's a mule or a horse. You'll know after you take it out for a walk!"
"Won't the Japanese and puppet army's mopping up start in three days? It's not far from here but Lingqiu. You can get there in a day and a night at a fast pace. Chief of staff, please do your best, bring a guard platoon and go there to see for yourself!"
"Take the order with you when you go. After reading it, if you are sure that they can complete the task, give the order. If they cannot complete the task, let them cooperate with the main force, and I will think of other ways."
"Yes, commander, I will leave in a moment!" the chief of staff replied immediately.
A guerrilla group attracted the attention of both the military division commander and the chief of staff, and Li Hao was definitely at the top.
In the guerrilla headquarters, the military map captured from the Japanese and puppet stronghold in Hongquan Village was hung on the wall. Li Hao had been studying the map for two days.
The troops are now out of the mountains, but they don't even have a decent base.
The common people are the foundation for the development and growth of the Eighth Route Army. Without the support of the common people, the guerrillas cannot develop.
The most direct and only way for the guerrillas to gain support from the common people is to establish base areas to protect them from the oppression of the Japanese.
In the past two days, he has been studying how to first establish a guerrilla zone with Hongquan Village as the center, and then expand the guerrilla zone to establish a base area in the core area of the guerrilla zone.
He had no idea that a big and vicious battle was coming towards him, directly crushing his dream of establishing a base!
