Chapter 933: The Choice of a New Base
The return of the battle heroes came with the brigade flag, and Lin Long had known about this for a long time, and of course took advantage of this to carry out a series of propaganda, telling how brave and tenacious the Wufeng Army was, and how they were not afraid of sacrifice and annihilated a large number of Japanese soldiers who killed people like numbness.
With such a push, there was a result of the villagers welcoming the way, homeopathically, to Wufeng, but also let Liu Ye, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, and some combat heroes on the propaganda platform, for this, Liu Ye did not say much, and readily agreed, as for the choice of combat heroes, the special forces must be hidden, this is a consistent tradition in the northwest, even if it has made great contributions, before it is completely separated from the special forces, it is not publicly commended, and the reconnaissance company has no problem, a total of 12 were selected, There are also 28 of them that were selected from the Fog Peak Army. Such a selection is more or less to cater to the tastes of the Taiwanese people, and there is nothing more worthy of their excitement than the local combat heroes.
Sure enough, when 28 local heroes appeared, especially when some of them were still local celebrities, the whole propaganda exhibition became a high atmosphere, and the stories told, captured and really captured, proved that their exploits were unmistakable, and the people gave the warmest applause to the heroes, and the whole exhibition was in full swing.
Heat and topics represent popularity, more and more Taiwanese people come to see the excitement, and the influence has expanded, even if it has not spread to the whole of Taiwan now, it is almost the same, like planting a seed, slowly germinating, it is estimated that it will slowly spread the news that Japan has lost the war. Probably in a short period of time, the impact is not significant. However, after a long time, it will inevitably shake the entire Japanese rule in Taiwan. Clear examples and examples have told the people of Taiwan how to fight and how to control their own destiny.
Regardless of the fatigue of the journey, after Liu Ye participated in the display ceremony, he left those local heroes in his hometown to lead the people to visit and explain, and he pulled Lin Long aside and asked him about the base. The base on this side of Wufeng Mountain was no longer suitable before the Battle of Nantou, long before the war against Nantou, Lin Long had already sent people to look for it in the mountains of the entire Taiwan, and it should be found now, otherwise, they would have to venture to the central mountains without a goal, although because of their combat effectiveness. It's relatively safe, but it's far from being as comfortable as finding a base.
Lin Long really didn't disappoint Liu Ye, it was a matter of life and death, of course he was concerned. The place is good, it is in the Central Mountains, and the center is in the middle of Taiwan. Stretching for hundreds of kilometers, it is the largest. It is also one of the most complex mountain ranges.
As China's once largest island, Taiwan's entire environment is not a plain. There is a clear difference with Hainan, the terrain of the whole Taiwan is the central mountain range, the eastern part of the place is high mountains, the trend is all north-south, the easternmost is the central mountain range, through most of Taiwan, a little west, the south is the Yushan Mountain Range, the north is the Snow Mountain Range, and the Yushan Mountain Range is Alishan Mountain in the west, these almost occupy more than half of the entire Taiwan, and the vast majority of the mountain ranges are very high in altitude, the main peak is more than 3000 meters.
Wufeng Mountain is only 500 meters, in the west of Taiwan, it is also a large mountain range, I don't know how much higher it is than a small mountain bag like Bagua Mountain, at least close to 500 meters of mountain range, in the low altitude area near the sea, it can already be called a big mountain.
Dongyue Taishan, the altitude is not more than 1600 meters, Wudang Mountain is similar, Wufeng Mountain is located in the western part of Taiwan, it is also considered to be higher, but the Wufeng Army came to a big firework in the first battle, and annihilated the Japanese army at one time, which is almost one-sixth of the entire Taiwan Army's regular army, such a tragic loss, no Japanese governor can stand it, and then, it must be a very strong counterattack.
Liu Ye is aware of this, small-scale, wing-level attacks, the small Wufeng Mountain is okay, but all the Taiwanese troops are pressed up, it will not work, such mountains are not enough to hide so many people, Lin Long's search is also focused on the Snow Mountain, Alishan These mountain ranges are the mainstay, and at least more than 20 detachments have been sent to search.
According to Lin Long, the team of more than 20 also found some more suitable places, but there were such and such shortcomings, and finally came to the vicinity of Hehuan Mountain, fortunately met a branch of the Saidek tribe that the Lin family had dealt with, as early as more than 20 years ago, the Lin family had a friendship with them, in the early days of the Japanese occupation, because of the Japanese suppression, this kind of transaction was cut off, and now it is reconnected.
During this time, the suppression of the aborigines of the entire mountainous area by the governor of Taiwan really set off a wave among the aborigines, and they tried their best to fight back, but the eggs always couldn't touch the stones, and they fought back several times, but suffered heavy losses.
In the past 20 years, most of the resistance movements in Taiwan have been set off by non-aborigines, and even if the aborigines participate, they are not the leaders, they also want to find out where they are lacking, and it is inevitable to introduce outside forces.
Aborigines, listening to Lin Long's words, Liu Ye's brows wrinkled directly, the aborigines are Taiwan has never been able to solve it well, even in the northwest, in the study, they are also vigilant against the aborigines, after all, Taiwan's development has been hundreds of years ago, it has always been a competition for space between the Han people and the aborigines, and the aborigines have been squeezed from the plains to the mountains step by step, and even said that in the depths of the mountains, it is the chassis of the aborigines, and it is a bit dangerous to rashly establish contact without understanding the meaning of the other party.
Fortunately, this time, the other party showed some kindness, and with the previous dealings with the Lin family, he was still relatively relieved, besides, Liu Ye at this time did not have many choices, in all fairness, this valley is the best condition.
The central mountain range, which is one of the largest mountain ranges in Taiwan, stretches through the whole of Taiwan, among the mountains of hundreds of kilometers, the main peak is more than 3,000 meters, there are more than 20, it can be said that the mountains are high and densely forested. Deep in the mountains, near Hehuan Mountain, a huge canyon originally belonged to the Saidek tribe, of course, the other party also put forward some conditions, not in vain, they need to provide the Saidek tribe with some items, such as food, cloth, iron tools and other daily necessities.
These things, the value is not high, the quantity is not particularly huge, a part of the seizure from Nantou is enough, at this moment, this is the best news, the Japanese counterattack is just around the corner, any slight difference, it is enough to make them ruined, they must hurry over.
"Lin Long, we have to start immediately, materials and personnel, we must start transporting them now!" Liu Ye said solemnly, according to the previous plan, it is impossible for him to send all the materials to the Central Mountain Range, in Wufeng Mountain, and even along the way, you can arrange some, only half of them are really sent over, but there are too many resources seized from Nantou, and there are some minerals that are not particularly before, half of these are at least about 400 tons, from Wufeng to the central mountainous area, there is only a distance of less than 100 kilometers, but most of them are mountainous, even with the help of aboriginal guides, it is not easy to pass, What's more, there is still a need to carry it, so you have to hurry up.
"No problem!" Of course, Lin Long knew that the deal with the aborigines had been established as early as 7 days ago, and now in Wufeng, there is also a liaison team of the aborigines, led by them, the first batch of old and weak women and children and some of the materials can already be passed, that valley is the aboriginal dwellings, and there are some houses that can be borrowed, plus the tents provided by the northwest, it is not the rainy season in Taiwan at this time, and it should be able to support the past.
At present, more than 5,000 people in 12 villages controlled by Wufeng are the first batch of relocation, as well as 5,000 young people recruited in Nantou and 5,000 people who have recently joined because of the capture of the Japanese army, which is 10,000 people who came to serve as soldiers, but Qingzhuang is the seed of future soldiers, careful Liu Ye, it is impossible for them to join the Wufeng Army now, they must be inspected and screened, but it is okay to let them go to the base.
Choosing a base in the central mountainous area, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, is Yangmou, this is Taiwan, which is too far away from the Japanese mainland, and in addition the declaration of war between the northwest and Japan, the entire Japanese energy and army have been pinned down to Shandong, China, and it is impossible to have the ability to send large troops to Taiwan, as long as the personnel and materials are carried over, at least six months, or even a year.
Liu Ye is quite confident in the training ability of the northwest, let alone a year, even if there is 3 months, the basic recruit training is completed, at least more than 1,000 Wufeng troops who have participated in the battle of Nantou can initially form an army, and among the remaining 10,000 people, at least 3,000 people can be singled out, although they are still recruits, they are already qualified soldiers, there are enough personnel, plus the advantages of the northwest in weapons and tactics, it is almost impossible to fail, as long as there are enough personnel, the northwest will send enough materials and ammunitionAt that time, even heavy artillery will be available, and as long as there are operating personnel, 3,000 people can play a role that exceeds the ability of a Japanese division, Taiwan, almost a ripe fruit.
It is still the stage of display, but the blatant migration of the Wufeng Army immediately caused a lot of riots, for the surrounding people and villages, Lin Long and Liu Ye did not hide, and said that it had caused a huge blow to Japan, in order to prevent Japanese retaliation, they chose to temporarily retreat and enter the central mountainous area.
This is simply a big reversal, it was said before that they achieved an absolute advantage, almost annihilated a Japanese wing, although it was said that the capture and the loot, there was no fraud, and there were military flags, but how did they have to turn in, what happened, these leading figures and well-informed people in ten miles and eight towns came to inquire one or two.
