The Japanese army increased its troops, so that the Taihang Mountain, which was already a little stretched, had to recruit again, in fact, the Taihang Mountain conscription plan has never stopped, but there are only so many large-scale conscriptions!

Some things need to be done gradually, and they can't be turned over at once, just like the current Japanese army, most of the recruits who are replenished are thirteen or fourteen-year-old children! The constant transfer of troops from among the common people will cause a fault line in the population resources, and it will not only reduce the combat quality of the entire army, but also the productive forces of the entire country!

For China, it has suffered from wars and natural disasters for many years, and the people have been displaced, and some places were quite rich, but after a natural and man-made disaster, a radius of dozens of miles has become a deserted place! The country needs to develop, and the people need a better life, this is what Liao Fan wants to do most in addition to fighting devils!

The army of Taihang Mountain has grown to six or seven hundred thousand people, not including logistics personnel and other personnel, and the army of Taihang Mountain is already a veritable army of one million! To raise such a large army with the peasants in their defense zone would cause a great burden on the peasants!

There is no way to do this, although they have reduced the casualties of the troops as much as possible on the battlefield, but in the face of the huge army base of the Japanese army, in addition to developing armaments, what they can do is to continue to expand their troops!

Moreover, China's land area needs to defend such a large land area, and it will inevitably need a huge army!

"We can't do any more large-scale propaganda conscription! But we can't do without conscription, limit the number of conscriptions, train reserve troops and militia! Provide weapons to the people, but limit ammunition! ”

As long as they do not launch a large-scale attack, there is no need for a large-scale expansion of troops! Although the Japanese army has a numerical advantage, in terms of form in all aspects of the northeast, the troops of Taihang Mountain are not weaker than the Japanese army! Especially in the arrangement of the three aspects, plus Ma Wanzhong in the hinterland of the northeast, they can contain most of the Japanese army in each aspect!

For example, on the periphery of the Great Xing'an Mountains, Hu Guoshan and Liu Chundao can contain a million troops! After the battle in Baoding, Tian Ziqi took the troops to rest for a while, and then went to the Soviet Union and joined He Guoxing! In the Soviet Union, they already had 80,000 troops, although the Soviet army had been transferred, but after all, this was the Soviet Union, and the Japanese army did not dare to venture into the Soviet Union, on the contrary, Tian Ziqi and He Guoxing could retreat and defend and attack! The two armies take care of each other, one on the left and one on the right!

Although Tian Ziqi and He Guoxing only have 80,000 troops, they can contain 300,000 or 400,000 troops of the Japanese army!

If all aspects are well contained, the Japanese army will not dare to act rashly, and Ma Wanzhong and they can also take the opportunity to develop their troops! Before the problem in North China was resolved, the situation in the Northeast was very unfavorable for Ma Wanzhong, who had no soldiers, no resources, and had to face the encirclement and interception of the Japanese army!

Now all the troops in Taihang Mountain are arranged around the northeast region, containing a large number of Japanese troops, this is an excellent opportunity for Ma Wanzhong! They took the opportunity to publicize and began to play the name of Taihang Mountain, and the people in the occupied area recognized the name of Taihang Mountain.

"Sooner or later, Lao Tzu will bring out hundreds of thousands of troops, and when the time comes, the little devils seem to be doing evil in the Northeast, it depends on whether their lives are hard or not!"

Ma Wanzhong heard that the original division commanders are the current commanders, and the minimum number of troops in his hands is more than 100,000 troops, but he now has more than 10,000 troops in his hands at most! There is inevitably some imbalance in my heart.

"Commander, the troops in the towns and villages have gradually become large! Now that most of the Japanese troops are pinned down to the west and south sides, shouldn't we make a sortie, we are short of supplies recently, new recruits have been recruited, and the guns are running out! ”

One of the most important problems behind enemy lines is the lack of guns and ammunition, although the troops have won several battles, but the scale is too small, and the captured materials are not enough to expand the troops, so the problem of guns has naturally become a big problem!

Although Ma Wanzhong is not short of money now, they can't go to the little devils to buy arms, and the little devils won't sell them to them! The only way to get guns and ammunition is to beat up the little devils and tell them that we have taken your weapons and will come to rob you in the future.

"Have you been eyeing it for a long time?" Ma Wanzhong asked.

"Hey, hey, Commander, the little devil's train to deliver supplies has been passing by the neighborhood one by one recently, and it's too easy, if we don't warn them once, they really think it's in their country!"

"You can fight, but let each company fight by itself, and the captured materials are the same as ours in Taihang Mountain, but this time our headquarters only needs thirty percent, and the other seventy percent are kept by ourselves!"

Ma Wanzhong finally realized that it is not easy to be in charge, the troops below are waiting to be fed, and he can't get decent materials in his hands, so he can only let the troops below figure out their own way, but they can't let the troops get rich and live a poor life in their own command!

"Okay, I'll arrange it!"

"Remember! Before fighting, we should find out the information first, in case the train is not the materials of the little devils, but the little devils who come down from the train, we will not lose the rice by stealing chickens, this kind of battle cannot be fought! ”

"Commander, don't worry, we can't beat and run? The little devils will definitely not be able to catch up with us! ”

Ma Wanzhong lacks everything in the Northeast, that is, there is no shortage of little devils, and there are good things if there are little devils, but these good things will definitely not be sent to Ma Wanzhong by asking grandpa to tell grandma, and they need their troops to get them themselves!

Just like Liao Fan said in Taihang Mountain, if you have the ability, you will drink wine and eat meat, and if you can't have the ability, you will drink the northwest wind! Of course, you will only know if you have the ability to do it after you have beaten it!

As a result, a guerrilla war was set off in the northeast, and various units attacked, especially with the help of bandits, and the little devils were not at peace for a while!

The Japanese army's energy is in the periphery of the northeast, and they simply don't have time to take care of Ma Wanzhong and them! Ma Wanzhong has two advantages in doing this, one is that he can beat the little devils and supplement the lack of materials in the army, and the other is that he can train the troops!

There are so many recruits in the army, and after a few battles, they will naturally be able to grow up! Of course, the little devils won't keep letting Ma Wanzhong and them do such evil! In particular, when the Kwantung Army Headquarters heard that Ma Wanzhong's troops belonged to Taihang Mountain, they ordered the troops to block all the roads for Ma Wanzhong and them to go out of the mountain.

"The telegram sent by Lao Ma in the Northeast, it seems that their little life has been good recently, and he has already contacted Hu Guoshan, so they will not be alone in the Northeast in the future!"

"The Japanese army will not give up the Northeast easily, and if they give up the Northeast, they will think that they will admit defeat!"

The Japanese army has been operating in the Northeast for many years, and even in the face of the difficulties of fighting again, they will not abandon the Northeast like North China! What Liao Fan is most worried about is that millions of Japanese troops are stubbornly defending the northeast, and when they wipe out the Japanese troops in the northeast, it is estimated that their veterans in Taihang Mountain will be about the same.

"Things in the Northeast are not in a hurry for a day or two, and it won't take us a few years to recover Shanxi and Hebei?" Li Lingfei said, "Now that we have just recovered North China, what we need is steady development, and now with these places, we can also consume the Japanese army to death!" ”

"By the way, how's the propaganda doing?" Liao Fan asked.

"The soldiers of the logistics department have done a good job, and the people of all China already know that we have recovered the Pingjin area and pushed the defense area to Shanhaiguan!"

"There is no reaction from Chongqing?" Liao Fan continued to ask.

Li Lingfei shook his head: "According to Xiao Zhou's report, there is no reaction!" ”

"Impossible! North China has won such a big battle, and the little devils in East China and South China have already become a mess of porridge, so is he, Chairman Jiang, just watching the excitement? ”

Now is a good time to launch a large-scale counteroffensive against the Japanese army in China, and Chairman Chiang has no reaction at all now, which makes Liao Fan very disappointed!

"By the way, Li Zongren's division in the Fifth War Zone launched a counteroffensive against the Japanese army this morning, and only recovered four county towns in the area where the two armies were fighting!" Li Lingfei suddenly remembered.

"What the hell! In Shandong, the Eighth Route Army has successfully recovered a lot of lost territory, what is their national army doing? ”

All the important ports along the coast and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are under the control of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army no longer has many troops in East and South China, and it will take until when it does not counterattack at this time!

"Recently, He Yingqin's situation is a little wrong, it seems that Chairman Jiang's diehard loyalists are going to be dishonest again recently!"

The troops around Taihang Mountain have been transferred to the front line to fight against the Japanese army, and now there are no defensible troops around.

"Could it be that Chairman Chiang wants to do something to us? Isn't he afraid of the opposition of the whole people? ”

The reputation of Taihang Mountain was fought the battlefield of resistance against Japan, and its status in the hearts of the common people was already unusual.

Liao Fan concluded that Chairman Jiang would not dare to do anything to them at this time, and if Chairman Jiang really did not want to abide by the agreement between them, he would not do anything to Taihang Mountain until the little devil was completely eliminated, which was also the main reason why Liao Fan would transfer all the troops in his defense area to the front line! With the support of the people, Liao Fan really doesn't worry about anything!

"We must at least take precautions, He Yingqin has always had opinions about us!"

At the beginning, he formed a bond with He Yingqin, and He Yingqin's troops were stationed around their defense area, which was indeed a very big hidden danger for them, and it was a * for Taihang Mountain!

"It's time to take precautions! If they want to do it to us, we can't put all the treasure on the people! Liao Fan thought for a moment.
