Chapter 427: Yellow River Night Talk (1)

After defeating the Second Division and the 35th Division, Liu Yimin ordered the Engineer Corps to quickly build bridges on the Yellow River to ensure that the main force quickly cross the river.

After receiving the order, Ren Chaoran and Li Zengyu immediately started to act, first lifting out three floating bridges that were sunk in the water with winches, and then starting to build a boat bridge.

During the day, the Japanese plane had already blown up the two fixed pontoon bridges originally built by the Sixth Brigade Engineer Battalion. No one can tell whether there will be any accidents this night. What if the Japanese warships come to destroy them?

The water of the Yellow River is not very deep, and large warships will definitely not be able to pass, but small warships such as gunboats, motorboats, and motorboats will definitely be able to come. At that time, the Japanese will come to take a few shots, and not only will they suffer casualties, but they will even be able to do so.

The bridge may be blown off. Therefore, after receiving the order, Ren Chaoran's first reaction was to report to the division headquarters, asking the artillery brigade to cross the river first, at least pass by an artillery regiment, establish artillery positions at the ferry crossing on the other side to cover the crossing of the river.

This request was naturally approved immediately and could be split. The mountain artillery regiment carried by the pack horses first withdrew from the position, quickly dismantled the cannons, and rushed to the Yellow River with the infantry regiment of the artillery brigade, preparing to cross the river first and establish an artillery position.

With practical experience in building a boat bridge, the engineers were still very fast to build a bridge again. Ren Chaoran saw that he had enough time. In order to ensure the speed of the troops crossing the river, he used a hidden wooden boat to pull up steel cables and connect them with wooden boards.

Two more pontoon bridges were built.

Hurry up and hurry up. After more than three hours, the boat bridge and the newly built floating bridge were basically completed. The mountain artillery regiment had successfully crossed the river and began to establish artillery positions, busy calculating the distance and setting up artillery attacks.

At this time, Ren Chaoran and Li Zengyu breathed a sigh of relief and separated several engineer battalions. Some crossed the river and some stayed on the west bank. They were preparing to quickly dismantle the boat bridge and pontoon bridge after the main force crossed the river.

Night is the world of the Eighth Route Army, especially when the battle is won, the Eighth Route Army soldiers are happy.

Ren Chaoran early ordered the various battalions and company cooking squads of the Engineering Corps to build dozens of stoves on the side of the road outside Xiaoying Town, Boxing County, the east bank of the Yellow River, to set up a large pot, and prepare supper for the troops.

In recent days, the main force has been hidden around Binxian County and cannot move fireworks. The soldiers all eat dry food. Now that they have won a big victory, they can let the soldiers eat hot rice and drink mung bean herbal tea.

The engineer corps first base stove, and the villagers in the town knew that the Eighth Route Army had won a great victory and the large army was going to train. So, without organization, every household began to be busy cooking. As a result, the news spread too quickly, even

In Boxing, the Lu Opera team "Yihe Class" and "Qinghe Class" who performed in Huantai area knew about it. They got on a carriage and rushed to Xiaoying Town, preparing to set up a stage to sing opera here to comfort the soldiers who had won the battle.

Before the main force of the instructor retreated, the martyrs were buried in Bin County.

Although this battle was won greatly, the Japanese army was not a mud, and the casualties of the instructor were still very large in Liu Yimin's eyes.

The most serious casualties were the cavalry brigades that were responsible for the Northern Line luring the enemy and blocking the enemy. They basically had no casualties when they destroyed the Third Kanto Cavalry Brigade, but when they blocked the Second Division, they fought hard. Because the third division was in the second division, they fought hard.

The Second Division has strong firepower and a motorized division. Its reaction speed is fast. Often, the attack on this side has just started, and the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles have caught up with each other, and they cannot even withdraw. Although the Cavalry Brigade has adopted the links of the cavalry

The fight was a tactic of leaving with just one fight, but more than 200 soldiers were sacrificed, and more were injured. If Liu Yimin had not ordered the stop of the blockade in time, the casualties would have been greater.

After this blocking battle, the death and serious injuries were caused, which meant that the cavalry brigade had lost a cavalry battalion. This was not a minor wounded person. They were all cavalrymen who had been tested for war. Hu Laohu was so distressed that he burst into tears. However, this blocking battle

The war made Hu Laohu more awake. When the cavalry met the Japanese mechanized troops, they had to be careful. Be careful. Those steel monsters were really not easy to mess with. Hu Laohu was afraid after thinking about it. Fortunately, he retreated in time. Second

The division was again bombarded by the artillery brigade artillery group and was defeated. If it weren't for the powerful artillery, the cavalry brigade would have been stuck by the Second Division, which was probably swallowed by the steel monster of the Second Division.

Need to be clean.

When Hu Laohu reported to Liu Yimin, Liu Yimin's face looked ugly. Because these cavalry were treasures, they were all elite soldiers trained. If they did not meet the Second Division, there would definitely be no such great casualties against other Japanese troops.

Because they are fighting blocking and harassing one after another, not a decisive blocking one by one. It seems that the use of cavalry in the future depends on the target. If they encounter guard divisions, the Second Division and the Fifth Division, etc.

Motorized troops must be cautious in using cavalry. But then again, cavalry is mobility and runs fast, and the losses are smaller. If it is replaced with infantry, the losses will be even greater, because infantry may be surrounded.

They can't even run out. It seems that if there is no support from the artillery group, the tutors will have a lot of trouble if they encounter the Japanese motorized division and the chariot division that may appear in the future.

Liu Yimin told Hu Laohu that the Japanese army had only three motorized divisions, namely the Guard Division, the Second Division and the Fifth Division, and may form a chariot division in the future. When encountering these troops, the cavalry brigade must be fast.

Fight quickly and retreat, and we must not be stuck by the enemy. Looking back, we must provide the cavalry brigade with a war defense artillery company or anti-aircraft artillery company, which is specially designed to deal with Japanese tanks, armored vehicles and cars from a long distance.

Other casualties were mainly caused when besieging the remnants of the 10th Division. There is no way. The 10th Division is a permanent division with high quality of soldiers and never surrender. Those who can survive to the end are veterans with accurate marksmanship.

It caused considerable casualties to the Eighth Route Army. At the end of the battle, the first company of the old battalion, which had never suffered casualties since its establishment, was killed because the company commander Zhang Guangming wanted to capture Segu Ki, resulting in the sacrifice of five soldiers. When Liu Yimin learned about it, he was angry.

I have to call Zhang Guangming and teach him a lesson, telling him that he has never suffered such a loss in the company since he was the company commander of the Sharp Knife Company. I asked Zhang Guangming if his mind was in trouble? Did he think of local troops as the regiment commander

?Is the water too shallow to fill the dragon of Zhang Dalian Chief Zhang? The bear made Zhang Guangming's head droop and tears dripped down.

Finally, Liu Yimin told Zhang Guangming again and asked Zhang Guangming to be responsible for conveying to the company commanders and platoon leaders of each brigade that the instructors did not care about Japanese prisoners, nor did they care about Japanese major generals, lieutenant generals, and generals. These guys were too troublesome.

After captives, they will attract crazy pursuit and revenge from the Japanese army. If they are shot, they will be cleaner and more neat, and the trouble will be small.

Zhang Guangming was only really enlightened. He thought that the Japanese major general was different from ordinary prisoners. Capturing would make the Japanese army very embarrassed. The commander of Da Zhang's Eighth Route Army would definitely use these guys to exchange for money and ammunition. Unexpectedly, the commander of the division was very careful.

I don’t like asking for Japanese prisoners, as long as they live! After understanding it thoroughly, Zhang Guangming stopped crying. After saluting, he hurriedly ran to convey the instructions of the division commander to his comrades.

The smoke of gunpowder has not completely dissipated, and the moon and stars pass through the clouds and smoke, watching the solemn and holy ceremony of the burial of the martyrs.

The tomb had been dug long ago, and the martyrs were lying on wooden boards with white cloth covering their faces.

The war was tense and there was no time to prepare the coffin. Originally, Liu Yimin wanted to bring the body of the martyr back to Luzhong and bury the coffin. However, the Japanese army launched a large-scale attack. After the troops returned to Luzhong, the large Japanese troops would chase after him directly and not understand yet.

, but it is certain that there will be a fierce battle after another. It is hard to say whether you can have time to make a coffin.

Luo Ronghuan knew Liu Yimin’s thoughts, so he comforted him and said, “Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains, why should you keep the body wrapped around? During the war, the situation changed rapidly. The martyrs will be buried for the time being, and the devils will be wiped out before they can be buried again.”

Only then did Liu Yimin agree to be buried on the spot.

Liu Yimin walked past the wooden boards, lifted the white cloth on the martyrs, and carefully checked each face. After reading it, he stood beside the martyrs' bodies and spoke to the troops attending the funeral: "Today, we have achieved elimination."

The 10th Division defeated the Second Division, and the 35th Division's brilliant achievements! This achievement is inspiring and will surely leave a brilliant mark in the history of the Chinese people's war of resistance! However, in today's battle, we sacrificed

With so many comrades who have been with me day and night, I am in a heavy mood like my comrades. What I want to tell my comrades is that this time, the little Japanese have devoted their efforts to deal with our Eighth Route Army, and have assembled 32 divisions and four.

The independent mixed brigade's troops were also drawn, with a total force of more than 700,000. The battle will be even more cruel, and there will be someone among us to die. However, we died for the fight against Japan, for the country and

The nation dies, the greatness of death, and the glory of death is more important than Mount Tai! If a martyr falls, millions of anti-Japanese warriors will stand up! Our Communist Party, the Eighth Route Army will surely unite and lead the base military and civilians to defeat the heavy encirclement of the Japanese, and we will still obtain it in the future.

The comprehensive victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression made Japan surrender unconditionally! Comrades, everyone is confident!”

The soldiers were thundering: "Yes!"

Cai Zhong took advantage of the situation and led the soldiers to shout slogans, "To fight against Japanese imperialism! Return my country!"

After shouting the slogan, Liu Yimin ordered a burial. After the burial, he gave a gun-fire ceremony.

After the burial ceremony, Liu Yimin ordered Cai Zhong to command the troops to move quickly and cross the river and return to Shandong Zhong overnight.

After all this, Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan found the political commissar of the Sixth Education Brigade who stayed in Hebei and Shandong to insist on the guerrilla war behind enemy lines, Fu Zhuting, the 18th Education Regiment, the New Sixth Regiment, and the cadres of the Second Independent Regiment, and called Li Lingfeng and

Wang Tongsheng specifically arranged the struggle behind Hebei-Shandong borders and enemy forces.

Originally, Liu Yimin arranged for the combat meeting to leave a regiment in the Hebei-Shandong Border Military Region to insist on the struggle behind enemy lines. Later, after listening to the suggestions of Zhu Quanle and Zheng Yao, he thought about retaining a powerful assault force on the Hebei-Shandong Border and preparing for the preparation

After the enemy pursued Shandong, it launched an attack on Cang County, and even went north to Pingjin area to attract the main force of the Japanese to return to the aid. However, after thinking about it, I felt that it was not suitable for the time being, because the main force of the Japanese might immediately pounce on the edge of Hebei and Shandong, saying that

Maybe at this time the main force of the Japanese army is rushing here at night! If you leave one brigade or two brigades on the border of Hebei and Shandong at this time, you will not be able to hide it no matter what you think of, and maybe you will sacrifice it in vain. After thinking about it, Liu Yimin

It was decided to keep three regiments and be accompanied by special combat troops to carry out tunnel warfare, mine warfare and restrain the Japanese on the Hebei-Shandong border.

Among these cadres, only Di Yudong, the political commissar of the Second Independent Regiment, and Liu Yimin was not familiar with them. Therefore, Liu Yimin shook hands with Di Yudong and greeted him, and then hello to the cadres, and then began to say: "The war is urgent. Today, the enemy's 10th Division was wiped out, and the Second Division was

The regiment and the 35th Division were defeated. At present, three divisions of the Japanese Hebei-Shandong Border Assault Group were hiding in the Yangxin area. The puppet North China Public Security Army was launched in the northern Hebei-Shandong Border Region, and began to go from county to county, district to village to village.

Drag the net to sweep. Tomorrow, the Japanese army will definitely mobilize a large army to the Hebei-Shandong border to find the main force of our army to fight. Although it is summer now, the Hebei-Shandong border is already in a severe cold."

Fu Zhuting immediately stood up and saluted, and reported: "Please rest assured that we must stick to the Hebei-Shandong border, carry out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines, and wait for the main force to counterattack."

Liu Yimin waved his hand and signaled Fu Zhuting to sit down, and then said, "This Hebei-Shandong border is a good place, rich in wheat, corn, cotton, and salt. Each of them is a strategic material that our army is determined to obtain. The Hebei-Shandong border guards Pingjin and leads to Shandong.

The strategic position of the major transportation route is important, and the enemy and us will surely seize it. Keeping here, you can threaten Pingjin to the north, open up connections with Hebei to the west, and threaten Jinan to the south. This place cannot be lost!"

Fu Zhuting was about to stand up and salute again. Liu Yimin waved his hand and asked him to sit down, took out a cigarette, let every cadre light it, and lit one himself, took a beautiful mouthful, and then said: "There is another thing, Hebei and Shandong.

The mass base of the border is good. After several months of struggle, we have established grassroots regimes in the border areas of Hebei and Shandong, including three-level cadres at counties, districts, and villages, county brigades, district squads, militias, and some county roads.

It has also begun to take shape. The people trust the Eighth Route Army and support the Eighth Route Army. This is the most fundamental reason why I want you to stay on the Hebei-Shandong border and insist on the struggle behind enemy lines. Chairman Mao had long said that we Communists are like seeds, which means that no matter how difficult it is

We can all survive in the environment.”

Speaking of this, Liu Yimin stood up and paced around the room. After a long time, he stopped and added another cigarette and said, "You stayed in the border between Hebei and Shandong. There are three endings. One is to stand, develop, and grow.

.One is that he can't stand and was beaten away. Another is that he was eliminated. I firmly believe that it is the first type. The most urgent thing is to do three things well. One is to hide yourself, that is, to hide and hide from the enemy.

Go back and hide in the tunnel, you can also pretend to be the Japanese and puppet troops. In short, the Japanese will not be able to find you, thinking that our army has all left the Hebei-Shandong border, and let their main force leave the Hebei-Shandong border quickly.

Second, we must quickly contact the armed forces of each county, district and village, unite our army's forces on the Hebei-Shandong border, so that they can know that our army has a strong main force on the Hebei-Shandong border. At the same time, we must use our strategy to fight against the enemy.

Tell them that they should immediately move into the enemy's backbone, into the underground, and save themselves. I heard that Okamura Yasuji proposed to not burn, kill or rob in Hebei and Shandong. This is all a lie. But this shows a problem.

That is, the top Japanese army leaders have begun to pay attention to the construction of the rear and have begun to compete with us for the people's hearts. Next, they will establish a pseudo regime, traitors and armed forces, and intend to occupy the borders of Hebei and Shandong for a long time. We must not let them succeed. But we must pay attention to the art of struggle.

For example, if the Japanese want to establish a maintenance meeting, we can allow our backbone masses to participate in the maintenance meeting of the Japanese. This is called a white-skinned red heart. It can not only protect the masses, but also cover up cadres and troops, and fool the Japanese. Our comrades participate in and organize the maintenance meeting.

, that is not called surrendering to the enemy, not called traitors, it is called fighting wits and courage with the Japanese and puppet troops. Third, we must resolutely crack down on traitors, and resolutely eliminate those traitors who surrender to the Japanese and never tolerate them. As long as we do these three things well

You can overcome the difficulties ahead on the Hebei-Shandong border.”

Nan Hongjun, the commander of the 18th Regiment of the Education Regiment, stood up and reported: "Report to the division commander, can we take the initiative to attack the Japanese so that they can't pursue the main force with all their strength?"

Liu Yimin shook his head and said, "Don't provoke the Japanese for the time being, hide yourself first. After the Japanese heavy army group leaves, the Hebei-Shandong border is your battlefield. However, you must aim the attack at the puppet army, and don't provoke the Japanese for the first time."

.I can tell you that the Japanese are very ambitious and they still have to fight Wuhan and Guangzhou! Their main force cannot be stopped in North China for long. If you don’t provoke him, they will think that the situation has been settled and the Eighth Route Army has

If you are driven away, you will be relieved to draw troops to fight in other places. Once you attack him, he will stay here and stop leaving. After the Japanese attack groups are transferred one after another, it will be our world. Which one do you want to fight

The devils will fight, and we can even capture Tianjin again, so that the devils can cry and call their parents!"

The cadres laughed out loud after saying this.

Liu Yimin said again: "Li Lingfeng and Wang Tongsheng are responsible for drawing a team from the Special Operations Brigade and the Sniper Brigade to command Fu Zhuting. There are two tasks: one is to cooperate in combat, and the other is to protect Fu Zhuting's safety. Lao Fu, from today on, you are

The highest person in charge of the Hebei-Shandong border area should be decisive when encountering problems. Fight when it should be, and retreat when it should be. Never stick to it. If you encounter a siege of the Japanese, one is to use tunnel warfare to fight the Japanese, and the other is to

You have to rush out decisively. With the special operations team and the sniper team, and the 18th Regiment and the 6th Regiment, the Japanese cannot trap you. Of course, remember one thing, after the main force leaves, your radio station should not be allowed.

If you turn on the phone, the Japanese can listen to the radio signal, bomb at any time, and will chase you according to the radio signal. It doesn’t matter after the Japanese troops evacuate."

Fu Zhuting was so moved that he stood up and said thank you to the division commander and political commissar.

At this time, all the things to be said were finished. Liu Yimin told Fu Zhuting to go to the baggage regiment to get more ammunition, medicines and food, and try to consider it carefully. Like mines and explosive packs, you should prepare more, so that the situation will be alleviated in the future.

We must create mines and explosives by ourselves in Hebei-Shandong.

Luo Ronghuan told Fu Zhuting to pay attention to the ideological education of the troops and ensure that it cannot be dragged down or defeated.
